Winamp 5.093 Released

18th May 2005, 19:52

cool

fisher819 · 18th May 2005, 19:57

can't wait to test this new version

billyvnilly · 18th May 2005, 20:04

egg!!! you beat the guys with http://download.nullsoft.com/winamp/...p5093_lite.exe as their homepage

biggman15 · 18th May 2005, 20:35

I don't see it in there... Is there an option to stop winamp from Calling home everytime you turn it on?????

siebe83 · 18th May 2005, 20:38

Prefs (Ctrl+P) > Media Library > Online Media tab > click 'Modify Preferences' button > uncheck 'Look for new Online Media Channels on exit'

biggman15 · 18th May 2005, 20:46

Ok thanx... Just didn't see in the changelog... Still downloading the new version... Dial up Sux....

DJ Egg · 18th May 2005, 20:51

- Update: Online Media tree is now dynamic (Checking can now be disabled)

And just a reminder... if you DO uncheck that option, then you will be stuck with the same 5 Online Media views forever... ie. no live feeds etc for you.

Also note that the check is now done on Winamp exit, and not at startup like it was in 5.09 :-)

Nunzio390 · 18th May 2005, 21:11

Additionally, you can download 5.091 FULL without any "bundles" or anything else added here...

[EDIT]
I just added it to the download list in the first post above.

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
*censored*
Alas, I've had to remove the links in both the first post and in this post, by order of Tag/Nullsoft. For sure, I already knew of its existence, but was specifically told not to link to it, for reasons I'm certain you'd all understand (can't say more, heh) :-)

[Edit --> Nunzio390]
Ahhh. Okay, Egg. No probs. I received your PM btw, and responded.
All is good.

Yep. It's safe. Install right over-the-top.

btw... you'll be installing 5.091 (not 5.09, which has bugs). Look at the 5.091 Changelog above with all the 5.09-specific fixed bugs (marked with * asterisks *).

Kado · 18th May 2005, 22:49

Well cd playback bug is fixed.

And directsound output has a new build... what's new in it besides the order of the the items in the fading tab?

STanger · 18th May 2005, 22:55

wma 9.1 pro cd rips using the settings in the attached pic sound like alvin the chipmunk on crack in both Winamp Pro 5.091 and Windows Media Player 10.00.00.3901.

I've also tried 16bit wma rips and I get the same effect.

I hope it's due to a settings mismatch or something of the like.

<edit>the cd rips I did using wma 1.0 encoder were done using the 6 channel setting not the 2 channel setting as shown in the attachment..sorry</edit>

ivand67 · 19th May 2005, 03:48

Because of the problems in 5.09, I'd say this is the most anticipated version of Winamp in the last year or so, as far as I care.

Thanks for all the hard work fixing the bugs guys - appreciate it. I'll wait for it to show up on Winamp.com, I guess.

Omega X · 19th May 2005, 05:14

Was the oddly, high CPU usage problem fixed?

biggman15 · 19th May 2005, 06:18

I think it was... Winamp is running Perfectly... on My system...

jdb264c · 19th May 2005, 10:11

Am I stupid or where did my modern skins go??

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
The Lite version does NOT support modern skins :/

priestlyboy · 19th May 2005, 10:47

Very very nice

I had to delete the my old version's primary winamp folder (excluding plugins/skins) and install this new version because of some nasty crash I kept getting on exit. I'm sure it was related to some corruption in the ini files but it doesn't crash anymore so yay.

Nice Release WinAMP!

Kalphegor · 19th May 2005, 10:48

Great version!

I'm looking forward to 5.1

3nd3r · 19th May 2005, 10:56

Just wanted to say great work guys. Keep up the great work and ill keep making tweaks for wine to run it in Linux :P

auhsor · 19th May 2005, 11:15

Nice, I decided to wait for this release after the trouble with 5.09. I don't watch the winamp videos very often, but I decided to watch some today, and I noticed that 'now playing' type box next to the video... Is there a way to disable that? I'm sorry if thats been answered before.
Also I don't use video's much in winamp (I prefer MPC), but can you freely resize video. i.e. click and drag, and not do 2x/full?
Also, I tried having double size with the winamp video and it resized the window longer, but not the video as it should.

Anyways, thanks for the upgrade

.

DJ Egg · 19th May 2005, 12:00

"and I noticed that 'now playing' type box next to the video... Is there a way to disable that?"

No, not currently. No sidecar, no free videos :/

"but can you freely resize video. i.e. click and drag, and not do 2x/full?"

For Shoutcast TV and other non-aol hosted streams, and for all mpeg/avi/wmv/etc videos stored on your local drives, yes. Basically, for everything except for Winamp Video and AOL Video views.

gully · 19th May 2005, 12:05

Thank You for new version

What's the status on 5.1? (Or am I posting this in the wrong thread...

)

5.091 was released less than a DAY ago and you are asking when 5.1 is due? You've got to be joking. Right?

jmbattle · 19th May 2005, 14:02

Might I ask why there is no mention of the Emusic-less 'full' version?

Regardless, thanks for the updates.

Cheers,
James

jmatthews112 · 19th May 2005, 14:04

I think it is some secret conspiracy at Nullsoft... jk

I really think, though, that there is some agreement between Emusic and Nullsoft to feature their music or something.

Read above: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....25#post1674725

DJ Egg · 19th May 2005, 14:40

Can I please just ask this one thing of you all... if you want to see its demise, then please download the emusic bundle 100 times each. Sure, you can download/install the plain full version, or just uncheck emusic in the installer options, but the most important thing is that the emusic bundle actually gets downloaded and registered so. And that is much more than I am probably permitted to say, so don't be freaked if this post is edited later to say something like "some text was here".

[edit] gah, ack, poop - just found out it's gotta be installed to be counted [/edit]

Yup, I guess I'll be deleting this post shortly...

Nunzio390 · 19th May 2005, 14:46

LOL @ Egg

19th May 2005, 14:59

he's funny

19th May 2005, 15:02

There seems to be a bug with mms:// streams if I load one up and listen to it, then close the program and restart the same stream from the playlist, it will start at max volume and not the volume set in winamp, moving the volume slightly up or down fixes this.

This didn't happen in 5.09

DJ Egg · 19th May 2005, 15:09

Yup, reproduced. Thanks

[edit] fixed in latest builds [/edit]

Artist 3D · 19th May 2005, 16:32

I can't download the new version, it says:

The requested URL /winamp/client/winamp5091_pro.exe was not found on this server.

I've tried all version and I get the same message... bummer

my guess is that some fixes role into Wa ATM and that therefore the current builds are taken offline in order to repack them.
however the download server is not down, 5.09 can still be downloaded.

Kieran Walker · 19th May 2005, 16:49

Yeah, but who'd want to download that buggy piece of crap?

Nunzio390 · 19th May 2005, 17:09

Hmmm. It appears (for at least now) that all 5.091 installers have been removed from Winamp.com and currently can not be downloaded. I'll check into this (try to contact Egg, Ben or Tag) to see what's up.

[EDIT]
Okay. It's confirmed. Downloads for 5.091 will no longer be offered until it becomes "official" and the Winamp.com site is updated.

SadEye · 19th May 2005, 17:32

?
can't download?

STanger · 19th May 2005, 17:49

man I sneaked that download just in time it looks like hehe

Nunzio390 · 19th May 2005, 17:51

Well, no downloads yet. Devs are currently working on a small volume bug playing WMA files. Just be patient. They are working on it at this very moment. Patience is a virtue.

jmatthews112 · 19th May 2005, 17:54

They seem to be working again...

The timestamps are approximately 1:36 today.

Something's changed...

[edit]

maybe that is it ^ up there.

My firewall did tell me in_wm.dll has changed, so I guess so

[/edit]

Wooden · 19th May 2005, 18:19

What is Ctrl-B supposed to do exactly?
Isn't it just end of list?
With winamp 5.091,
when repeating is Off
when i press Ctrl-B, it changes the song but then when i hit B or the next song button, it just doesn't work.
Is it what Ctrl-B is supposed to do? lock the song in repeating off mode, because when repeating is 'all' or 'track', hitting ctrl-B just change the song and the next (>) button and B still work
If it's not a feature and that no one can reproduces, i'll try a clean install

edit: also, when after pressing Ctrl-B in repeating off mode (when it's locked) at the end of the song it stops playing and doesn't plays an other song, it's not the end of the playlist song tho.
