I don't see the "wavefore seeker" in Aimp that you mention. I see the thin navigation or seek bar...but not a visual waveform? |

i thought that was what it was called.
It shows a waveform in real time and you can click it to seek to different parts of the song |

That's sounds like what I am looking for...but it does not look like that with my installation today. See this screenshot. (hope I'm not too far off topic here)

Some people don't like EAC because it doesn't have a pretty interface, can take longer to do it's job, and isn't the easiest to setup.
They ignore the fact that it does an excellent job, even on less than pristine CDs. Windows 10 Home 64-bit v21H2 desktop - Logitech Z906 5.1 speaker system |

Progress?
My first post here! So, how is the progress of Winamp going right now? I started using Winamp in late 2013.

An artist becomes famous, then the artist needs a break, but after a long break suddenly the artist has a comeback... I want to say, that it is not the end of an aera just because AOL didn't want to have Winamp anymore. Fortunately Radionomy had bought Winamp, we just have to give the development team more time, because many changes have to be done for a new Winamp Version.
It is good to know, that Winamp 5.666 can run also on Windows 10 (and Windows 8 / 8.1). Also the Milkdrop Visualizer should run on these Windows Versions. I myself have only Windows Vista and Windows 7, after also the second one of our both computers with Windows XP from 2004 has died this year. I have read, that Android 5.0 and Android 5.1 / 5.1.1 are out now. I don't know, if the latest Winamp for Android will work also on these Android Versions, if not, then we all have to be patient, until a newer Winamp for Android will come out. I always have to be patient, also for my private problems. I remember, I always was very happy, if I discovered in the Facebook Profiles of many friends, that also they themselves had used Winamp. But after 2013 suddenly more and more people had changed the media player. One of them had asked me about the Milkdrop Visualizer very often. Suddenly he began to write bad comments in my postings about Winamp & Milkdrop, also, that he had switched to another media player, because it would be a much better player. Much better? No, nothing is better than Winamp. Fortunately he cannot force me to download and install his new favourite. Nobody can force me to change the media player. The other people can do that, if they want that, I myself don't. I will remain faithful to him, to my lovely Winamp... ![]() Sabine Klare Aka Sternenmaschinebine Music, Art, Lyrics, Videos AMBIENT...

Thought this would be worth a look, mind you it's from 2014.

I'd like to say this is confirmation of the "it's gonna get here eventually" time line, probably not 2016. But that all depends on how many programmers they had on the project initially.

It's been kind of quiet here for a week, so I thought I would note an "observation". DrO's forum profile doesn't have a image or subtitle anymore. Any reason?

DrO did mention that he was stepping away (from development) a while back and there was a twitter post by radionomy looking for a US community manager, that might even apply to the UK since it's the same language. But these may be completely unrelated.

This is the concern since even Android 5.1 has had the same issue as well because KNOX keeps taking too much resources from Music Players unless the CPU Importance Threshold is below 100, more like 80 or 90 would resolve most problems, so in turn it means WinAmp may have to include a CPU and Buffer Settings in the Android App in order to make sure it does not Stutter. |

It sounds like the issue isn't so much Winamp as it is Samsung Knox. Have you tried disabling (or removing if rooted) the app? Have you tried a different music player to see if that issue persists? (like rocketplayer) Finally, is your fone capable of handling everything or is it a low-end samsung?

Hey, I was going to post that
![]() So, as already mentioned, the plan is to make Winamp 100% freeware again, which means replacing all 3rd-party/aol-licensed code with open source/free alternatives.... So we've started with core features such as: - mp3 & aac decoders (more details to come later) - removing ms drm support from in_wm (wow, heh) - cd ripping - albumart retrieval - OpenH264 decoder Maybe a few other surprises such as a new OpenMPT-based in_mod, and a wasapi output plugin... I've also got a 5.666->5.8 changelog.txt file already with over 100 lines, so expect a whole heap of new features, improvements, tweaks, optimizations & fixes.... There's still a load of work to be done though.... e.g. CD burning - and Gracenote replacement (CDDB, Autotag, PlaylistGenerator) being the big one, and plenty more (further news to follow later). Alas, it's still some time away before we can provide a public beta build... but I can assure you all, we're working on it, and it will come eventually :-) |

Intrigued as to what the new winamp is going to be like. Anything that improves a program has to be good... I can imagine the AOL code was pain to remove. |

Egg, this totally made my day!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm not quite sure about the OpenMPT thing as MikMod is already GNU GPL licensed... but probably the reason is to rewrite it because the old in_mod code as such was difficult to maintain? Also, would it be possible to make it compatible in a way that people who bought Winamp Pro and thus do still have the enc_mp3 encoders etc. on their hard disk, can continue to use those encoders (if you have to remove them in the official installers)? I really mainly use Winamp to reencode and all those handy things... I think for AAC and MP3 decoding you will find solutions that are free, there are a few out there, arent they? I hope you will not have to remove SBR support from AAC (HE-AAC)... that would be a huge pity. Anyway - I'm joyful that you confirmed that work is going on! And 5.8 is a good sounding number ;-) Keep it up, and thank you so much! Best regards, kzuse |

@kzuse
The mp3 & aac decoder changes have already been done. We will still support HE-AAC playback. I'll provide more details later, but not right now. Re: in_mod Yes, it would require us to rewrite in_mod to update to the latest mikmod anyway. OpenMPT (Modplug) is better maintained and supports even more formats, afaik. The new plug-in is already mostly done, and works a treat :-) Re: Pro / encoders We won't delete lame_enc or enc_fhgaac on upgrades, only on uninstallations. On clean installs, lame_enc will need to be downloaded separately.... @Victhor Winamp 5.8 will be a continuation of the 5.x series, so yes, we'll still support plug-ins and skins. Classic base skin & Modern / Bento skins will still be included. Yes, we would like to have a new skin to accompany the release... but no work has begun on it yet. We haven't decided yet, but we might open it up to the community once a beta build is out.... (?) |

GPL can't be used in Winamp, unfortunately, as it requires that the entire program be GPL. LGPL is allowed, however. The copy of MikMod inside in_mod is very very old. When I looked at the open source MikMod project a few years back, it was unusable as they had removed thread safety completely from the library and only one MOD could be played at a time (which made things like transcoding and Alt+3 info impossible).

I still suggest a locked thread with updates just on Winamp progress now that we have an announcement as such.
This is way to important to people to be lost again in the general news area with all these other posts |

The only problem is people will then start new threads asking the questions instead. But still I do like having a "Current status of Winamp Development" thread that's locked for only update statuses

It's just that a month down the track this info will be buried like all the other bits and pieces we have had..:-(
I don't want to come here to read that someone loves Winamp. I'd rather have just the facts updated in an orderly fashion..:-) PS Reminder that the download links need to be updated as the Android ones are dead links now. Last edited by djpete; 28th September 2015 at 00:08. |

Re: Android .apk links Oops, thought I'd already updated them... I have now. Thanks. Re: dedicated thread etc There'll be one once we get a beta build out, but it's probably still a few weeks off yet. Said thread will include the full changelog :-) |
