Mpeg Video File Playback?

alky · 6th May 2001, 08:36

I know Winamp is an audio player, but being able to play Mpeg Video files through the minibrowser, or a similar window would be a great addition to winamp's uses...

YtseJam · 6th May 2001, 08:49

No.

ImJesus666 · 6th May 2001, 10:32

but most people here dont .. but there are plug-ins .... search for vidamp

I think that it's not a feature that should be in Winamp by standard- but that it's great that the program is flexible enough to have plugins that allow it to function as a movie player, if that's what the user wants.

"The NiceMC Media Plug-in is an add-on for Winamp that allows you to play many kind of media files from DVDs to JPG including AVI, MPEG, VOB and many more."

yea yea, it's shareware, but it is really good, at least better than windows media player

Warning! The free version of NiceMC comes bundled with adware/spyware, and therefore we do NOT recommend it.

For more, look in: winamp.com/plugins -> input section.

Also, please check The Official 3rd-party Plugin Buglist for known bugs.

Hopefully a later release of 5.x will support all video/movie/dvd formats via the default DirectShow Decoder.

Are there any recent plugins that can play the RM/MOV videos in the Winamp Video window, instead of spawning a new window of its own?

EDIT: Ahhhhhhhh, I didn't notice this was such an old topic >_<

Metshrine · 27th January 2004, 01:48

I wish that someone would develop a nice plugin for quicktime files in winamp5, the powerplayer just locks my pc by using 100% cpu and doesnt play the file and vidamp plays but with serious studdering. :-/ Tara is great, works for all my real media files, no updates needed. Just wish we could get a nice mov plugin

Yes, please!!!

I don't use Windows Media Player, Real Player, and not Quicktime

! I only want to use my beloved Winamp!

Thank you.

J_Darnley · 28th August 2004, 10:57

Try a plug-in search. I have seen one that will play mov and swf files.

Burnett · 28th August 2004, 11:07

Thanks for your quick answer.
I did. But the description always says for Winamp 2! Can I ignore that? I'll try the plug-ins I've just downloaded.

Something related:
What I don't like about Tara, is that it uses an own window and it always turns so small after each track. For every new real-video-file I've to make it "fullscreen" again. Can I change that?

J_Darnley · 28th August 2004, 12:13

Yes, MOST WA 2.xx plug-ins work with WA 5.xx. You must have seen the WA 2.xx = WA 5.xx with bug fixes and new features.
(The ones that don't are usually for very specific things (Languages packs and the such))

As for the Tara thingamabob, I don't know, I don't use it:

- Real Audio and Video (with no extra plugins)
Play Real Media format files in Winamp with no extra plug-ins. If you have Real One or Real Player already and hate it, feel free to uninstall it first, it will no longer be needed. First install Real Alternative. Second add the proper extensions to the DirectShow decoder:
Preferences (Ctrl-P) > Plugins > Input > Double Click "Nullsoft DirectShow Decoder..." > add ";RA;RM" (no quotes) to the end of the extension list.
Note: this does not work for .RAM playlist files or rstp:// streams, use the Tara plugin instead (just remove ra & rm from the extension list in tara.ini).
Or just use the Tara plugin for ALL Real formats instead.

That way it shouldn't revert back to not FS if you use the in_dshow plugin.

Burnett · 29th August 2004, 08:57

Hhm ... and with that I can watch real-video in the original Winamp-video-window???

That would be cool.
Does this work only for real, not also for *.mov etc.?

When I don't get it done, a reinstallation of Winamp would redo it?

... and is it absolute necessary to uninstall the Real-Player?
