Enqueue problem

fud · 14th October 2001, 20:00

Hi,
When i enqueue multiple files via the windows explorer context menu, it often happens that each file is opened in a new winamp instance.
The problem occurs when enqueuing more than 50 files at a time.
The more files the more often the bug occurs.
I'm using winamp 2.77 on Win2k SP2. I can't tell you if the problem exists also with previous versions.

Thank you.

Preferences (Ctrl-P) > Options > UHcheck "Allow multiple instances"

If that isn't it, it is a known bug

Hi,
Thank you for your answer but this setting is not the cause as my problem happens quite randomly. By the way, enqueuing with my other computer always work perfectly.
If the bug had already been reported, i'm sorry to have bothered : i only had a quick overview of other posts on this forum.
