Winamp 5.9 Final Released

[Evgeniy]

I just installed and I realized that Queue Manager feature is missing. That one with the shortcut Q or Alt+Q. I often use this feature but now it's not there anymore. I was upgrading from version 5.666.

Install the JTFE v1.33.(Build 1216) plug-in. It's Queue Manager feature works with the latest Winamp version.

I'm upgrading from the version I've used for 10 yrs to the latest.

What is the accepted way, in 2023, to get our subwoofer firing and use 5.1 sound? There are ton of old forum posts about this pointing to plugins that haven't been maintained in a decade. It's a needle-in-a-haystack situation and MatrixMixer doesn't even save it's configuration so I have to do 2 minutes of config every reboot or everytime I accidentally turn my stereo off, because the device disappears, so the configuration disappears. I want something better than Matrix Mixer.

My computer is hooked to my stereo via an HDMI cable. I did this last year in order to bring myself up to the modern age, and for the life of me, the modern age sucks.

I've lost the bass in my music because of the lack of subwoofer, and the majority of the speakers aren't even firing. I want the audio coming out of my side and rear speakers too, as well as the subwoofer.

This seems like an incredibly common request without an incredibly common solution.

why?? just stick with a decent soundcard in the computer and hook up your surround set on that 5.1 surround soundcard , works perfectly for me

Because literally every receiver does HDMI switching and it would be stupid and expensive and pointless to buy an extra card to reproduce the exact same functoinality?

It kinda sounds like you're out of touch with the way most people do things. Most people do not buy soundcards these days. If you've been using TV out to run your PC on a computer since the 1990s, you generally dropped having a separate sound card around the time of the 2nd release cycle of HDMI cards (the first release cycle typically didn't support on-board HDMI). This was around 2008 or so.

I'm not sure how having a separate sound card would address this speciifc problem anyway, without creating a slew of additional problems. My FM transmission relies on a DAC that converts HDMI signal to RCA input for the FM transmitter box, for instance.

In general, telling people their setup is "wrong" is never going to do anything to help anything other than the smugness of the person giving unsolicited advice that isn't actually a solution to the problem.

Also, most motherboards added on-board audio around the same time as well. I've had optical digital audio off every motherboard i've owned since 2005 or so. That supports 5.1 and has since the 1990s. When software doesn't use hardware correctly, it's not the hardware's fault.

Excuse me , can't you read? Did i post anywhere that i have a soundcard installed? nope, you assuming it and that is the mother of all fuck ups.
Every computer here has been custom made since 2000 , so my motherboards have always had very decent onboard soundcards.

just be very carefull with your words next time , it might save you from being banned for a while or forever

[ClioCJS]

Well in that case, thank you oh so very much for your irrelevant and useless suggestion that you have no personal experience with. Keep up the great work.

And oooooooh *spooky music* a threat of a ban from someone without the power to use it, to someone who could just make another account. Non-flex, lol.

another assumption , so a major fuck up on your side, granted you a two week ban , have a great time and making another account ? easy to spot and that is called ban evasion , so that account will be nuked also

That's funny, because it was never spotted last time.

It's constantly crashing when I try to open new playlist after cleared old one. I got suspicious that Shoutcast Source DSP v2.4.1 could be a reason who cause this. I use Winamp v5.9.2 Build 10042 (x86).

with 5,92 it's like that for everyone. This is a highly unstable version. for radio I use 5.8. 5.9x is not stable.
