Winamp kind of freezes when watching videos

FusionGTX · 10th March 2009, 06:51

I need help guys! Winamp kind of stops working after a while when I open 2 different videos which technically is freezing my player but the video is playing. My mp3s works fine if I open several .mp3s and audio files, but the problem is with any video I play after opening several of them the player freezes.
Opening 1 or 2 different video files, the video still plays and I can still full-screen it with ALT+Enter, I can pause it, and stop videos on full-screen, and even move the player! But the problem I notice is that I can't double click it to make it full screen or not make it full-screen and I can't move the winamp player or click on anything on winamp after opening and playing several videos!!
I think there seems to be a corrupted .dll or something but I don't think it's a virus that's causing all this.
I scanned my computer with Malware Anti-bytes, Super Anti-spyware, Kapersky 2009, Spyboy Search and destroy, and everything.. nothing seems to work.

Can someone please help me fix this problem?

I'm having the same issue, once the second video starts to play, the video runs fine, but I can't click on any control of the windows menu (start, stop, forward, reverse, minimize, close, etc). The global hotkeys on my keyboard work fine, and closing winamp from taskbar goes quick so it isn't frozen.

This happens both on my Vista Ultimate 32bit machine and my laptop running Windows 7 Beta (Build 7000), both have global hotkeys enabled, could this be it?
