Post All Winamp 5.666 Core Bug Reports In This Thread

[JohnDee]

@JohnDee

Hmm, I can't reproduce the problem here.

I just made a copy of an existing mp3, dragged it from Explorer and dropped it on the Local Media > Audio tree item,
and then I went to the Recently Added view and the newly added file was at the top of the list.

I would normally suggest that it's something like Winamp running in admin mode to blame,
but then you'd see the red cursor indicating that drag+drop is unavailable, instead of the normal d+d cursor.

Maybe it's a permissions-related issue, or some badly-behaving plugin to blame...?
I know you said "clean install", but was the Winamp\Plugins folder definitely non-existent/empty before installing 5.66?

I didn't double check that all files were gone before reinstalling. I'll uninstall/reinstall again and double check that all files are gone before the latter.

the whole of the JTFE shell handling needs to be re-written as it was known that some parts were broken with other changes which had to be made to get it supporting other required changes for the 5.66 release. as i own the source code, the plug-in can be updated irrespective of whatever may happen. so apologies to all that i've screwed this up for though i think you can try toggling some of the options to get it like before, but i cannot remember which at the moment.

I was able to restore the enqueue functionality by going to Preferences > Shell Options then enabling "Add "Enqueue & Play' to Winamp's associated file types", then check "Add files into the queue for delayed playback" then the radio button for inserting at the end of the queue. Then I unchecked the "Add Enqueue & Play" option and it works. If you re-enable it and disable the delayed playback option, it will again play immediately.

Thx that works

I can confirm that Zithromax's workaround/fix works. Thanks.

The only quirk being....

It's also adding the enqueued item to the JTFE Play Queue

Or if the song is already in the playlist (e.g. if a large playlist is loaded)
and you "Enqueue in Winamp" the same song from Explorer,
then the original playlist entry for that song also gets added to the JTFE Play Queue.

Maybe this isn't such a bad thing though, but it is a change of behaviour.
Before, it just added the enqueued item(s) to the end of the current playlist only.
It didn't also add them to the JTFE Play Queue
(which it shouldn't if the main EnqPlay option is unchecked in JTF options).

What it means is that the first enqueued item will play next, even if there's still a number of existing songs in the playlist before it.

Hopefully it can be fixed so we can get the expected behaviour back...

I've noticed a slight skip in the first 5-15 seconds (it varies) of every 4th or 5th song I play. Have not had this problem until going to 5.66.

I am playing the song in a playlist, not in the local library.

Hi!
I know it's kind of to late and maybe pointless too, but here is my bug report anyway.
Version 5.66, the latest one, it's unable to queue files trough context menu. When I do that - it starts playing immediately... I didn't succeeded to enqueue any files... did reinstall few times, but nothing helped.
It works perfectly in v.5.65

Hi Zypher76,

Known problem, has already been reported several times.

Until it is fixed, a couple work-a-rounds have been discussed (search forums). They both have side effects that may be undesirable for you.

Problem (This isn't so much a functional problem as an inconvenience):
In the "Winamp Classic" skin, the classic Oscilloscope visualization no longer correctly displays the "Lines" mode, even when it is selected in Winamp Preferences. Instead, it displays the "Dot" mode. I've confirmed that the "Dot" and "Solid" modes display properly, and the "Lines" mode appears to display properly in the Bento / Big Bento and Winamp Modern skins. I did not notice this issue in my previous version of Winamp, 5.65.

As a test, I did remove all my third-party plugins and there was no change in behavior.

EDIT - I just updated to version 5.666 and the issue still remains.

I can reproduce that Line Mode for the Oscilloscope visualization in Classic skins isn't working correctly.

D'oh! If only you'd reported it a few hours earlier.... :-)


Well spotted. Thanks!

Yeah, I saw that 5.666 came out just today. I wanted to report this issue earlier today, but I didn't have access to the computer with Winamp on it, and couldn't provide all the necessary information from memory.

[MrSinatra]

5.666, the number of the beast!

[Legendarion]

There is still a a bug that still haven't been fixed wich annoys a little bit. The Media Library is somehow "freezed" in the ripping section and you have to click on something else to get it back. Look to the left side: http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/1108/zfu2.png

Using the Winamp Classic skin. If I play an MP3/WAV/M4A file and use the mouse to drag the Seeking Bar to a new time point, when I release the mouse the display continues to show "Seek To: xx:xx" instead of reverting to the song title. Doesn't happen with WMA files. Doesn't happen when seeking with the keyboard. This behavior has been occurring with Winamp versions >= 5.65 (5.64 is fine).
