    Reporting Bugs:

    Please report any issues with the beta in this thread only.
    Make sure your report is complete, according to the sticky threads in Bug Reports, ie.
    Clean install, no 3rd-party plugins, full step-by-step method of reproduction, relevant system specs, exact error messages, screenshots, which skin (one of Classic, Modern, or Bento only, or all three), links to sample files, etc.
    If error reports, screenshots, sample files, etc are smaller than 100kb, then please attach them to your post here. Otherwise, please upload to one of stashbox.org (recommended), mediafire.com, or sendspace.com and post the url here (no rapidshare or imageshack or similar links please).
    Note that incomplete/lame bug reports may be totally ignored.


    Particular areas which need testing are:
    • Winamp Bento (SingleUI skin)
    • Album Art support (view/pane in ml) & Downloader service
    • Unified File Editor (CoverArt/Advanced/Extra tabs, for mp3, flac, ogg, wma, m4a)
    • Media Library navigation tree (drag+drop items, collapse/expand, etc)
    • New ML Local Media filters/panes/config
    • New PMP filters/panes/config
    • Check for any gen_ff/skinning bugs
    • New Podcast views/features
    • CDDB2.5 features/editor
    • Playlist Generator (play tracks similar to)
    • Auto-Tagger (in Alt+3 File Info & Send To menu)

    Notes:

    -Winamp Bento skin does not appear in the Skin Selector list in the installer,
    -so for now, you'll need to select it from the Skins menu after Winamp opens.

    -The new Mass Auto-Tagger (ml_autotag) only appears in the English installer options
    -and not in any of the other translations. Sorry, but it was a last-minute addition.

    -Album Art support is almost complete, but not quite...
    -Lookup order: embedded (in tags), %album%/cover/folder.jpg/gif/png.
    -Note: The cache is the art*.* files in the "Plugins\ml" folder
    -(art.dat, art.idx, art60.dat/idx, art90.dat/idx, art120.dat/idx).
    -Downloader access via: Art icon rt-click menu, unified file info & pmp edit info box
    -Currently saves as %album&.jpg in the containing folder.
    -See "Known Issues" section below for more...

    -mp3surround is playback only for now (no encoding).
    -You can find tracks at www.all4mp3.com/music/

    -Playlist Generator (rt. click ml/pledit items > Play tracks similar to):
    -Notes:
    -1) Manual config via: Prefs > Plugins > Media Library > ml_plg.dll > config
    -2) Initial Scan may take some time. The more files in your mldb, the longer...
    -3) Obeys the Play/Enqueue as default action in ML Prefs
    -4) Database stored in Winamp\Plugins\Gracenote (along with all other GN/CDDB files).
    -If getting "error initializing" messages, you'll need to delete cddbplm.pdb/idx/gcf files.

    -Re: Skinned ml scrollbars
    -For support, Wasabi version needs to be specified as 1.3 in skin.xml, eg.
    -<WasabiXML version="1.3">
    -Also note that v1.3 skins no longer use the internal freetype font renderer.

    __________________________________________________________________________


    Known Bugs/Issues:

    -Winamp Bento skin does not appear in the Skin Selector list in the installer, so for now, you'll need to select it from the Skins menu after Winamp opens (important enough to mention twice) *

    -On startup, the Bento skin can occassionally leave a portion of the media library drawn on top of/underneath other windows. It goes away when you move a window over it. Note that the same can happen if switching from a skin where both the Video/Vis and ML windows are open, which results in the Video or Vis tab being active in Bento instead of ML (click the Media Library tab to fix). *

    -In the Bento skin, the Media Library will occassionally not fill the entire tab (switch to Video tab and back to fix). *

    -Bento skin: When setting is enabled, vbr display for mp3's changes too rapidly *

    -DWM thumbnails on Vista show the Classic skin when a Modern skin is minimized, or components of the Classic skin when the vis/vid drawer is attached & open in the Winamp Modern skin **

    -New CDDB features may still be a bit buggy (eg. genre saves with "General" at front)

    -Album Art retrieval criteria and writing/saving isn't configurable... yet!

    -Alt+3 album art editor is fairly incomplete, and also won't find all album art.

    -'Get Album Art' doesn't find compilations very well, and doesn't find art when album names have "notes" at the end like "Dark Angel [EP]".

    -Album Art API doesn't deal with illegal filename characters yet < : \ " / ? | >

    -Embedded art doesn't show in Artwork tab of File Info (but displays ok in Album Art views/window/etc)

    -Winamp crashing when attempting to view some PNG/GIF coverart in Alt+3 Editor *

    -Winamp Modern songticker: padding issues & winshade shadow on first/last char *

    -Some AVS presets are broken in this build. Sorry, this is a compiler related issue and should hopefully be fixed in time for 5.5 Final

    -Station Info window is broken (blank content) (I think we're getting rid of this anyway / not sure?)

    -We're seeing a few reports of crashing under Vista (crash on exit, when switching skins, when running vis plugins, etc). These issues are being looked into and, if reproduced, will hopefully be addressed/fixed for the next beta and/or in time for 5.5 Final (note that they mostly tend to be related to the 'DWM thumbnails' fix). Let us know if there are any improvements with Preview 2. If the problem persists then please include a full detailed Bug Report (see above).

    -Some cbr MP3's are reported as vbr in File Info

    -Custom Genre not being saved for MP3 when typed into ID3v2 tab of File Info *

    -Winamp crashes when clicking the "Delete All" button in the Advanced tab of File Info for Vorbis files (or if using "Delete" when only one field is present/populated) *

    -[ml_plg] Playlist Generator config: 1) 'Playlist Length' field allows text input (but should be limited to the drop-down selection only). 2) The 'Reset Database' button automatically deletes the plg database without any confirmation dialog. *

    -[ml_plg] Multiple "Playlist Generator failed to Initialize" error messages on Winamp startup, when Gracnote/plg database is corrupt (more info here and here) *

    -Mass Auto-Tagger sometimes might come up with mismatched results (eg. titles are the same or mixed up for different tracks on same album) *

    -If genre is empty it remains empty after using File Info Auto-Tagger *

    -Random weird bold font glitch in Local Media views *

    -Font not updating in Local Media views when disabling 'use same font as playlist' option*

    -The Local Media column immediately to the left of Rating doesn't remember resize changes after switching views *

    -'Files of type' drop-down selection is broken in the Add/Open Files Dialog *

    -Alas, Winamp 5.5 is no longer compatible with Win9x (Win 98/ME), and all support for those OS'es has now been discontinued.

    KEY
    * = Fixed internally
    ** = Reverted (feature removed internally)

      Sweet! My ipod doesn't seem to be crashing anymore, great job it's great so far. Love bento.

      EDIT: Sigh, it does not crash but when I add anything it screws up half the songs on the ipod and they just don't play. ANd it doesn't remember what kind of ipod it is, it asks every time I plug it in. WHen I try and play a song it doesn't work and just starts cycling through other songs. I can play the affected songs on the ipod from winamp though. Vista Ultimate 32 Bit, Ipod Video 5th gen.

        Hey...
        You fixed the songticker lag - yey..
        You fixed the classic songticker thing (and we can also drag it ) - yey

        But you did not fix the modern skin songticker spacing (when using "Modern style")..
        If you look at it, it is more space on the right side, than it on the left side... Try to adjust that (with, or without my numbers..)

        My file is something like this but this works only when leftpadding and rightpadding is set to 0...
        So, if you are going to use these numbers, paddings have to be on 0 (or something like that)..
        Also, look at the blending on the ends, it may change when setting the paddings to 0... Look at it..
        You can try to adjust the text spacing, and the blendings...


        <!-- Songticker -->
        <Songticker
        x="10" y="45"
        w="-18" h="21"
        />

        <Text
        id="Infoticker"
        x="10" y="45"
        w="-18" h="21"

        Keep up the good work..

            Thanks for the update.
            did the media library become bold on purpose?
            no third party plugins, clean install



            Thank you for all the hard work.

              Thank you so much! Last week I had a bad problem with Katakana/Kanji/Hiragana not displaying correctly in the Playlist when loading the from my iPod. But now, it works nicely.

                  Alright, apparently my ipod is working fine, but the album I was using to test it is the only one not working. When I try and play this album it just cycles through all the songs in the album. I have tried re-adding it to no avail. I also tried editing tags/re adding it in winamp then adding it to the ipod also but they just won't play on the ipod. They worked fine with 5.35.

                    just a question:
                    how about Skinned PL scrollbars ?

                      No, that shouldn't be happening.
                      It's been reported a few times now, eg. here
                      but we've still not been able to reproduce it yet....


                      @screaming_jesus
                      We were worried at first, until your 2nd post.
                      Hmmm, do you maybe have iTunes installed and open at the same time?
                      If not, then what file format are the files?
                      Are they in a compatible format, or do they need to be transcoded?
                      Are all the tags filled in (Artist, Album, Title, etc)
                      If mp3, have you tried testing them with eg. EncSpot or MP3Utility to see if there's any corruption?
                      Any other detailed info you can provide might help, including links to sample files...

                        Yes, DJ Egg, I just wanted to make sure you knew it was still happening. Continued to happen even when I closed winamp and restarted. But here is something odd, the problem went away when I installed the essentials pack. <shrug>

                          sorry to report such a small issue in PREVIEW 1 of the beta.
                          but using Bento
                          go to browser, quick links, add new sub folder, the "X" tooltip shows Exit winamp...and it shouldn't be...
                          the tooltip is also wrong with "edit quick links"

                          also would be useful that esc key could work here, to exit that menu

                          ( i'm using preview 1 )
                          will "test" preview 2 tomorrow.
                          thankx

                            Can someone check if retrieving album artwork works for streams if you are behind a proxy? It lags a lot when the song changes. I think I remember seeing album art when I am not behind a proxy.

                            One more thing, will Winamp ever support Auto Proxy configure URLs?

                              Re: Font problem

                              @ Juanus - welcome to the font problem club. What size jacket do you wear?

                              So in installed the latest BETA, v5.5 (Build 1568) BETA, and the previous font issues
                              I reported here are no longer occurring. Moving from the ML's Local Media View to
                              other views does not seem to affect the font size as it did before.

                              However, all is still not well ...
                              1. Close Winamp ensuring the property circled in red here is checked.
                              2. Open Winamp
                              3. Go to the ML's All Music view
                                (although from my tests this seems to happen on any/all ML views)
                              4. Open the Media Library preferences
                              5. In the "Advance Library Preferences" group,
                                toggle the "Media Library uses same font as Playlist Editor" property on & off
                              For me, this will adjust the font in the ML Tree, but NOT in the main window of the ML.
                              I would expect it to adjust the font in both areas.

                              Note that this same property had an affect on the issue logged against Preview #1
                              v5.5 (Build 1550) BETA.
