Post All Winamp 5.9.2 Bug Reports In This Thread

[stgiga]

A bug in 5.9.2 I have found is related to certain fonts (in my case UnifontEX, my improvement of GNU Unifont, as well as the official GNU Unifont's last TrueType version, which has to be obtained from Unifont's official archive repo) being usable in the TrueType Font selection (it just never shows in the menu) except for when selecting the Playlist Menu font. I'm using a clean install of 5.9.2 on Windows 11 and Winamp Modern skin with the Uranium color scheme. I have an RTX 3070 GPU with a modern Intel Core i7. I'm on English (US) for language pack, and use an American English Windows 11. My locale is set to Japanese so that many of the Japanese MIDI files I play do not experience Mojibake. On that note, apparently, if I ever play a WAV or MP3 or other such audio in Winamp, playing a MIDI file via the default MIDI player plugin that outputs to an external MIDI device (in my case OmniMIDI with my JummBox SoundFont, namely V11) will actually play the WAV on top of it, and silencing that WAV can ONLY be done using the bundled DSP plugin with the "Simple Volume Control". So, in actuality, there are TWO bugs going on here. I'm using the latest versions of my drivers.

Step 1 for font bug:
Download the last TrueType version of GNU Unifont (15.0.06), or UnifontEX.

Step 2: Install it.

Step 3: Go into the "Playlist Preferences" and select "Use Font" You will observe that the fonts show up.

Step 4: Go into the "Modern Skins" preferences and then "Font Rendering"

Step 5: Try to change the "Fallback Font" or the "TrueType Replacement for Winamp Charset bitmap fonts" with the dropdowns. You will observe that the fonts that showed up earlier do not show up.

Step 6: Try to use the Skin Font Mapper. In the array of fonts usable, those fonts are also not visible.

MIDI Bug:
Step 1: Install OmniMIDI or any other Windows MIDI synth, or if you have a hardware MIDI synth, use it.
Step 2: Go to the MIDI Player input plugin configuration and select OmniMapper (selecting OmniMIDI will result in an endless error loop of it saying the device is in use)
Step 3: Play some regular audio files.
Step 4: Play some MIDI files. You will hear the audio files mixed over the MIDI files.

Having the same crashing as probably many others in this thread. Winamp never even has time to generate a crash report, only Windows registers the crash. Basically the same report as Gunti posted except for Windows 11 (10.0.22621 Build 22621):


Trying now after uninstalling modules: NFT Library, HotMix Radio (or whatever it was called, sry) & Fanzone.

So far so good, but situation might change since the crashes have been fairly random at times. Will try to remember reporting back if it helped or not.

After removing these + Online Services I haven't had crashes. Could online services be the culprit? Maybe something left behind after the removal of the browser that causes random crashes?

also no features to utilize dolby dts for headphones...

Does License and trademark ring any bells????? yep won't happen same as onedrive or google support,
those things cost a small fortune and Winamp is a free player so do the math.

[puffosul]

I had in the playlist 1100 tracks... and I tried to remove them (CTRL+A - del) and Winamp would close (if I deleted only a few... no problems) Same thing would happen to new playlist (CTRL-N)

Tried a lot of things until I noticed I had Shuffle and Reapeat All activated. When I de-activated those, deleting all the tracks worked fine.

i've had to downgrade to windows 10 because winamp is extremely unstable on windows 11's latest build. everytime i'd go to do anything it just crashes no matter what i do. also there is a bug in volume control and its not in sync with windows sound control mixer. i have to have winamp at volume one to use the windows sound mixer and it isnt a smooth experience. and there is no multi CPU threading support such as a x64 release. and still no direct cloud support for OneDrive and Google Drive for multimedia playback. also im not sure if the app can utilize cpu's correctly in a specific core or thread if is busy. probbaly why it crashes. also direct 3d audio support could be buggy i have noticed playback issues if active to utilized my cpu.

Version 5.9.2 has many issues and I don't think they will be fixed. I went back to version 5.9.0

[Gunti]

That is heap corruption error code, check your addons and try to remove then one by one to find the offending one.
If you have ASIO output plugin, this is the first candidate.

Funny you mention that. Yes I'm a music producer and I have an external soundcard. But this never happened before.

So.. I've done one thing. Uninstall Winamp. Removed all folders associated with the app.
Installed the "last stable version" (at least the one that I've used 5.9.0 build 9999)
Not Installed the Winamp agent.

Running without any problem.

I will be using winamp heavily next days/week if this solves the issue I will install the recent version with the same settings and let you guys know what happen.

Thanks

There is a slight annoying bug that makes Winamp to close unexpectedly. If I press the Load-button to get the saved playlist-file X amount of times, it suddenly closes. And it's not necessary only that button, but also on New and Save.

[Legendarion]

Been on Winamp 5.6.66 forever; recently got tired of being notified by updates so tried 5.92 today. It crashes a second or two after I play anything (no prompts to report the crash or anything; just like closes).

Would like to provide more information/crash logs but not sure how to.

Returned to 5.6.66 again and everything is fine.

You know that you can turn off the update notifier in "General Preferences - Check for new versions of Winamp at startup"?
