Winamp must be stopped to play sounds online?
Today I was sent a Youtube video to watch, before opening the link I paused my Winamp to hear the video, not surprisingly. The thing is, when Winamp was paused I could her nothing, but when stopped the audio came in fine. This happens in both Firefox and IE and not in iTunes.
My computer is custom built CPU: 2.13ghz Core2Duo Mobo: gigabyte 965p-ds3 RAM: 2 gigs Corsair Sound Card: Bgears B-Enspirer (new) OS: Vista Direct X Version: 10 Winamp version: 5.531 Winamp install type: believe it's full Speakers: Logitech z5500 It should be noted that this is my first time using Winamp so I do not know if this would have occurred before hooking up the new sound card with optical. |

1. Winamp > Ctrl+P (for Preferences)
2. Plug-ins > Output 3. try highlighting/selecting 'Microsoft DirectSound Output' instead of the kernel streaming plugin. 4. close out of Prefs |

Thanks guys, but if it's going to kill the 5.1 I will just have to deal with it.
