Where to get WMA output plug-in v0.90?

loslwm · 22nd November 2004, 02:03

where can i find and download the output plugin for (Nullsoft WMA output plug-in v0.90) to install? i checked the site for that plugin also but no luck either... so far i only have direct sound and waveout for an output in my winamp player, but i want to use WMA output plug-in v0.90 also. anyone?

WMA output? What are you trying to do? I've never heard of a WMA output plugin. Do you mean input plugin i.e. you are trying to play WMA files?

loslwm · 22nd November 2004, 02:31

ummmm... yeap` Nullsoft WMA output` is what i'm looking for :]

it came out like in winamp version 2.8 or something` lol
but i want it so i can use it to covert mp3s to wma's,

and of course i know there's tons of programs out there,
but instead of (instaling + loading) up this program and that program to convert the music, i just want to do it all in winamp. :]

billyvnilly · 22nd November 2004, 02:33

theres a wma input...but no output... install 5.06
edit...oops.

you'll want to use the nullsoft diskwriter in (out_disk.dll in pref>output) it must be highlighted to work.

configure plugin
set directory you want files to be placed
configure (...) button:
Format: windows media audio v1 or v2 (i dont know difference)
Attributes: up to you.

load you music in playlist...click the ones you want converted.

Why on earth do you want to convert and mp3 to a wma? First of all, converting lossy to lossy always results in quality loss. I don't see any reason to do this.

thnx all, and DJ Egg` much appreciated :]

and krock, mainly i needed wma for music upload on my webpage, since it streams faster than mp3 despite the quality.

sweet_chica · 29th November 2004, 20:51

hi, i'm trying to convert my mp3's into wma files but the new winamp does not have the wma output option. someone please tell me how to do it because i'm not too smart when it comes to these computer programs. :S

look at the post two places up.

sweet_chica · 30th November 2004, 03:38

yes i noticed that, but what do i do with that out_wm.zip attachment? sorry i don't catch on too quickly. please explain in detail. thanks!

unzip it into your winamp plugins folder.

Why not use dBpowerAMP Music Converter with the WMA-plugin instead?

CraigF · 30th November 2004, 12:39

because winamp can do the same and this is winamp.com?

nybergh · 30th November 2004, 13:04

no, winamp doesn't do the same thing. Winamp plays the file through the diskwriter and places the output data in another sound file, which is smart to do only if the user wants to add a Winamp DSP.
It's generally faster to do with dbpowerAMP as you just need to right-click the file that needs to be converted in any Explorer window without interfering with Winamp's configuration disabling winamp as a 24/7 music player for a few seconds

. That's why a separate app is needed.

sweet_chica · 30th November 2004, 14:13

i think that dbpoweramp seems too confusing but thanks for the suggestion nybergh. i'm pretty sure i got the plug in to work on winamp now. thanks CraigF!

WMA?

Try the listen OGG's or MP3's

nybergh · 30th November 2004, 16:32

eeerrr, I think he wanted to process WMA-files. It's impossible to do that in DMC without a plugin. But hell, yes, try ogg at the same time.
