    Notes:

    Hidden winamp.ini setting for adjusting overall volume even for files with RG applied
    (will be added to ui in 'Prefs -> Playback -> ReplayGain' later)
    replaygain_preamp=0 (in 0.001 dB units, i.e. 1000 = 1dB, adjust value to taste, e.g. 6000 for 6dB boost or -1000 for -1dB reduction)

    The 'Internal statistics' menu item for modern skins is a beta-only feature and won't be in the final builds (and also, for this reason, will not be translatable)

    Winamp Dropbox is an alpha plugin. Use Ctrl+Shift+D to open.
    Its actual purpose is still a bit of a mystery, but all shall be revealed in good course...

    f263.w5s (used by in_flv) is a beta-only feature and will not be in the final build.

    __________________________________________________________________________

    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, list of 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 200kb, then please attach them to your post here. Otherwise, please upload to one of stashbox.org, 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.

    __________________________________________________________________________

    Known Bugs/Issues:

    1. The Bento browser is not localized/translatable in this build, but hopefully should be in time for final release.

    2. NowPlaying & ML InfoView pane might be a bit buggy. Note that these issues are constantly being worked on serverside during the entire beta phase. Please ignore (don't report) any script errors in any of the online features. These have been enabled for testing/dev purposes, but will be disabled fully in the final release.

    3. The AOL Radio entry in the client whatsnew.txt will not feature until the final release.

    4. Some of the lang pack translations might not be fully up-to-date...

    5. Rip & Burn / CD Drive views crash when Sonic Engine isn't installed

    __________________________________________________________________________

      Winamp Essentials Pack 5.54 Beta 2 released:

      Download | Mirror 1 | Mirror 2

      Changelog so far:

      5.54:
      * New: [f263.w5s] playback support for additional FLV codecs
      * New: [ml_impex] Winamp Database Import/Export plug-in
      * New: [enc_flake] encoding support for FLAC audio format, based on FLAKE 0.11
      * New: [gen_find_on_disk] added ability to translate FFOD plug-in via Essentials Pack installer
      * New: [gen_timerestore] added Finnish, Dutch and Bulgarian language files
      * Removed: temporary removed Playlist Sidecar from the installer, because of compatibility issues, it may return in 5.54 Final
      * Improved: [Installer] changed compiler date format (%d.%m.%Y instead of %Y/%m/%d)
      * Updated: [Installer] updated license file
      * Updated: [Installer] to NSIS v2.37.1 (Unicode)
      * Updated: [Installer] Turkish, Finnish, Polish, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese language files to v1.10 (thanks guys )
      * Updated: [enc_vorbis] Nullsoft Vorbis Encoder to version 1.2, based on aoTuV b5.5 and has improved localization support


      The sidecar has some compatibility issues with this version, hopefully this will be sorted out for the final version. For now, I've temporary removed the Sidecar from the installer and the installer will automatically uninstall the sidecar on old installs.

      [Edit] Winamp Essentials Pack 5.54 Beta 2 released

      Changes since first Public Beta:

      * removed trap translations for official bundled Winamp languages
      * changed behavior of the "No" button in Winamp detection code, so that installer won't close anymore
      * fixed FFOD translation issue, related to Dutch language file
      * updated to NSIS 2.37.3 (Unicode)
      * updated Turkish, French, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish language files to revision 1.11


      German Translation

      The German translation now features full localized images for the Modern Skin, big thanks to Pawel Porwisz for drawing the images.

      It's also based on latest Winamp 5.54 example file, which provides a much more complete translation especially for the Modern Skins, And it has a fully localized MilkDrop translation and tons of tweaks.

      I hope you like it.


      Undocumented new Winamp 5.54 Skin features

      releated to: * Misc: Various other 'Winamp Modern' & 'Bento' skin updates

      The Winamp Modern Skin now shows values for Preamp and EQ in the songticker:



      The Modern Skin notifier now also shows the Album-Art like Bento:



      Modern Skin Album Art window now also features the right click menu:



      And Bento now shows the state of the Balance in Songticker too, like Modern Skin already did:



      Thanks to the person, who added these lovely stuff.

            Noticed this on a slightly earlier build. I think the state remains OK, it's just the display on stop that gets reversed.

                Misc: [enc_flac] Now encodes using libFLAC instead of Flake

                Just an question. Why was this change made? I am a big FLAC fan, but flake seemed to be O.K.

                I like how Flake is still available via the Essentials pack.

                GREAT WORK DEVS.

                    @Juanus

                    libFLAC is much more tested than FLAKE and it gets more often updates than FLAKE, I guess this were the main reasons.

                        Okay, no config for enc_flac. The slider for compression level is missing or wasn't included. If it is supposed to be missing, why? If it won't be added, what is the setting used?

                        Improved? That should be "Worsened". Anyway, thanks for providing the essentials pack.

                        There is a slight error, maybe, in the installer. The H.263 flv decoder only says (h) in the text after the checkbox. Also, can you not have the installer close if Winamp is open? The Winamp installer doesn't bitch and then close.

                            Hmm, enc_flac shows the compression slider okay for me (see screenshot).
                            Are you using a lang pack maybe?


                            And the "(h)" after in_flv description only shows when f263.w5s is present.

                            [edit -> re: in_flv, not enc_flac]

                            ohh, you're talking about the installer... hmm, sorry, but you've lost me there, lol

                              Only had a look at Modern, over the top install.

                              Take a proper look later and post back if any different.
