Winamp Android Feature Request Survey

[DrO]

i was just stating what it had come down to serving up (which aided in the decision to kill it).

I hope you're not suggesting I used it for porn?

OK, I'll give it up then. RIP discovery feature ...

[DrO]

the same response applies as its a SHOUTcast service that will not be resurrected. plus this was an audio app and not a video player as well which would be needed to play such things.

it's best that you forget about SHOUTcast TV as its been gone almost 2 years and no one has really missed it going. as there were less than 80 streams, less than 500 users on those streams and it was mostly crap / porn. so that's why it won't return and Winamp was never good for video (if the client supported video), just audio.

I asked about the old discovery option for Winamp on another thread but guess it's worth a shot asking here for the Android version too - do you think there's a chance itcould make it's way back onto our (now much smaller) screens? I used to love this feature and would be delighted to see it back.

Thanks for the good work !

Material design Winamp!

+1 for skins; that was always fun.

Sorry if it's been mentioned before, but I would also like to see "Play by Folder" -- which is to say: I have some badly tagged files or a set of "various artist" folders that play in an organized fashion if added by filename. I'd like that to come to Winamp for Android.

is there a way we could get a winamp for iphone? I use winamp since 98 or 99 and i know there will be alot of people very happy having the winamp on the iphone.

PowerAmp is the most downloaded and popular Android player and has skins.. Player Pro too, besides Nexmusic, Apolo (I think, or it was just colorization) and a couple more I can´t recall now.

Being customization one of the main keys of Android, it does make sense to give the user the ability to "change", although, it has to be said, having so many thing in the "to do list" even I think this should be considered among the last features on the list (specially if dev team is small and can´t afford "focused groups").

yet most people prefer things looking like the OS being used than skins for things (those days of skins being the thing are long gone). though i've seen it crop up where people won't use WAFA because it doesn't have skin support or plug-in support (though that'd be meaningless as people would have to make them from scratch for an Android version).

[Victhor]

Uff... lots to add, but I´ll point to my field.. skins! Winamp without skins is like pizza without cheese..

Featured Request: The ability to play tracks from HDtracks.

ratings!!

I want my ratings!!! Bar none, my favorite features of winamp revolve around the ratings. I'd love to be able to at least see the ratings when I sync songs to my android, and ideally I'd love to change them, and sync back to my PC.

Reconnect to ShoutCast Stream

When I'm playing a ShoutCast stream in the car, every time my cellphone connects to a different cell tower, the ShoutCast stream is dropped. An auto-reconnect or buffer type feature would be awesome!

What happened to the full album (Or CD Can't remember what it was called) on the Android version? I used to like some of the stuff I could listen to!
