Winamp 2.9 Video Issues

Savages_Wolf · 7th April 2003, 19:51

Hello All,

Just wanted to first say, its awesome that winamp 2 has its own video player now! something I have been wanting for a long long time, and is better than all the other plugin players that had all sorts of bugs and errors. So far, the player works awesome for me, I had to disable the option [ Allow Video Overlay (recommended) ] for video files to play in my winamp. With that off they work fine. The bug im reporting here is that when winamp is playing a for example .mp3 file.... and when the mp3 ends and a video file is next like a .mpg it will play it fine.... BUT... if it is playing a .mpg file... and when that video finishes and it goes to the next thing on the list, if its another video like a .mpg or .avi it wont play it... itll select it but the video wont start playing... just something I have notised that might want to be looked into...

Thanks,
Wolfy

Ok. It's a conflict with the "Auto close video window after playing" and "Stop playback on video close". if both are selected it will cause the problem. Kind of make sense, but it should check to see if Winamp closed it's own window. I'll report it to the developers soon.
