WHOA! Are these final....? I sure hope so... I don't want to download some leaked version full of bugs and crap.

But they're at V.2.95 already...? And what the heck is this ad-free version or something? Since when did Winamp come with ads in the first place? Can somebody explain this to me, the eternal newbie...?

Synthet1k · 26th June 2003, 03:48

dan1el · 26th June 2003, 03:55

is AOL-free. dunno what that is, but i think AOL is some shit so i download the none AOL-version.. ^^

no ads what-so-ever..

li1997 · 26th June 2003, 03:58

noaod = NO Aol On Desktop

no pr0n ads all over your machine...

-L"k"

26th June 2003, 04:05

You can uncheck AOD in the Full installer anyway.

Nothing is "final" until you see it on classic.winamp.com. Any file on download.nullsoft.com is subject to change without notice before then. In fact I believe it is already out of date. An updated installer was recently made available to the Beta testers. Minor last minute bugs and things.

mark e · 26th June 2003, 04:33

and the links are not working anymore... fine!

Supremacey · 26th June 2003, 04:37

is it me or the links aren't working?

bubkaii · 26th June 2003, 05:01

anyone find any mirrors?

wmjordan · 26th June 2003, 05:09

why the new version is not on the web page?

26th June 2003, 05:16

Because the website was not updated. Which mean is not final yet.

No matter if it is on the download servers or not. No matter what the Betanews hacks say. A version of Winamp is not final and officially released until it is put up on classic.winamp.com. Just because it is on the download site, it may not be official.

If bugs or problems are found between uploading and updating the website, then the site is not updated until the final version is ready.

sanosuke · 26th June 2003, 06:04

so sawg what about those who managed to get this version? Does that mean that there is another one coming out?

26th June 2003, 06:26

As stated before, the version that was available appeared to already be out of date.

Hawk · 26th June 2003, 06:40

Well, I was hoping for WA 3 skin compatibility in WA 295. Let's hope they will put this in the final WA 295

26th June 2003, 06:45

Nope. It is still quite early in the development stage.

duh · 26th June 2003, 07:19

go look in another thread about wa2.95 if you want a mirror...

Hanschke · 26th June 2003, 07:43

anyone a mirror for me?

26th June 2003, 07:46

Just wait until the final version is released and let them work the bugs out first. Don't want to keep answering tech posts about people using buggy versions.

RastaMahata · 26th June 2003, 11:15

will the new version have alpha blended icons? you know, xp icons as in wa3? That's all I'm asking

Oh, and a faster, less resource-eating, video player, like BS-Player.
And the Ogg Vorbis encoding is a plus! Keep it up!

Now, if the library could update the id3 tags from some nullsoft db... that would be sweet..

So far i have to edit my id3tags manually, getting info from sites like freedb.org or mtv.com (even amazon.com works sometimes).

Till then!
(If this thread need to be moved, please excuse me...

dan1el · 26th June 2003, 13:08

Ok, that final i downloaded would have been a final, but they took them down cause' bugs? I dont know, but i have full version on my server....

Note: i can take down the site at any time so just mail me and ill take it down..

Mr Jones · 26th June 2003, 13:58

Do you have permission to distribute ANY versions of Winamp off your site?

Read the distribution agreement, and ask yourself if you have done any of what is requested within it.
http://www.winamp.com/community/promote/distribution/

I'm guessing not, so not only are you distributing a bugged version of a product that isn't released, your doing so without permission of the authors.

Your link is wacked until you can prove otherwise.

dan1el · 26th June 2003, 14:19

No, im not allowed to distribute it. File is also deleted from my server.

Thanks for stopping me ^^.

net-cruizer · 26th June 2003, 14:24

Sweet! Workin excellent for me.
Nice being able to change more of the Media Library colors, to blend better with the skins.

OttoBufonto · 26th June 2003, 15:22

Links are working again...
I know the link has not been promoted to classic.winamp.com, so it could be another internal beta. So downloads are at own risk.

Seem to be a different gen_ml.dll... (just looking at file tiem stamps)

Otto

DJ Egg · 26th June 2003, 15:41

Yes, there's one or two fixes implemented in the latest build.
Links are working again. Please delete the old installer and download afresh.

As long as it's on download.nullsoft.com you know it's kosher.
It becomes official when it's on classic.winamp.com (usually updated Thursdays).

Loving it!

sanosuke · 26th June 2003, 16:56

anyone knows where to get the lame encoder for winamp ripper?

Helkite · 26th June 2003, 17:01

What do you mean kosher?

Nimelennar · 26th June 2003, 17:16

Quote:

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=kosher
Kosher, adj.
1. Judaism.
a. Conforming to dietary laws; ritually pure: kosher meat.
b. Selling or serving food prepared in accordance with dietary laws: a kosher restaurant.

2. Slang.
a. Legitimate; permissible: “consolidating noneditorial functions of the papers, which is kosher” (Christian Science Monitor).
b. Genuine; authentic.

The_Drake · 26th June 2003, 17:21

So how do we go about modifying the newly skinnable part of the media library? On about 90% of my skins, the background color for a highlighted item is the same as the text color of that item, making it unreadable.

Mr Jones · 26th June 2003, 17:25

There will be details posted this evening in the WA2 skinning forums
http://forums.winamp.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=5

Soon as I see a live copy on the front page, I'll move the details into there.

DJ Egg · 26th June 2003, 17:46

@The_Drake
I was getting the same with the old installer.
Are you sure you're still getting the same with the new version?
I know I'm not.

old bug | fixed

@Helkite
Yup, Nimelennar got the correct definition of "kosher" (2. slang....)

Mr_007 · 26th June 2003, 17:57

Nice news!

Just copy the files from the zip archiv in your Winamp plugin folder.

reddog · 26th June 2003, 21:27

The download links are down again, and when I browse to download.nullsoft.com/winamp/client , it says '403 Forbidden'. What's going on?

Mr Jones · 26th June 2003, 21:30

I got an idea, why don't you knock off the woodpecker that is sat on your keyboard tapping at the F5 key , and wait until you see it on the main page of classic.winamp.com, what's a few hours longer to wait?

This slavish "must have it now now now" vibe that is running around here is beginning to scare me slightly.....

dan1el · 26th June 2003, 22:35

The files are down again ^^

DJ Egg · 27th June 2003, 01:18

Bloody hell!

Jonesy's right ya know....

jtp755 · 27th June 2003, 01:46

So WA 2.95 will be released in like the next few days?

and the versions on www.winampheaven.net..are they real or not. Not like i care...i was just curious.
