Not mov, that's proprietary to Quicktime, which Winamp3 doesn't support (currently). But avi's, mpg's, and all formats supported by Windows media codecs should play.

But I'm feeling much better now.

I guess you need to be more specific, are you getting errors of any kind? Is the video window opening? Have you tried opening the files from within Winamp3?

no errors, just doesn't play.
Guess for Video, I'll have to stick with Winamp 2, like that's a BAD thing....

Well, help us to help you:
Are you playing them off of a network or local disc?

Do they play fine in Windows Media Player?

What specific filetypes don't play?

What are your system specs?

Are your drivers up to date?

Have you installed the Winamp3-update (link in the FAQ below)?

Have you read the FAQ? http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....hreadid=110988

"Do they play fine in Windows Media Player?"
Ewwww, but yes.

"What specific filetypes don't play?"
.mov

"What are your system specs?"

And On that day, the Lords of the land said unto their Master Architect, "The temple you have made to the gods of Wasabi and Maki has brought us no great prosperity" and they sent out him into the lands.

As he traveled to a far off land, he found he wasn't traveling alone, but that he had gained companions, and when they found their new land, they started work on a new temple, one that would be OPEN to all who wanted to worship.

i actually agree with that one. the old version of media player in particular is fantastic for playing videos - and what do you need skins on a video player for anyway?! i always just hit "fullscreen"...
