Crossfading function in Winamp

[Eagle Creek]

Hey, in Winamp zit een crossfading functie. Dit is toch om de tracks in elkaar over te laten lopen? Nu heb ik hem zelfs als op 20 seconden staan maar ik hoor helemaal niets??

Doe ik iets fout?


Hey,
in Winamp there is an option called "crossfading". I guess this was to overlap tracks in each other. So the next track starts in the previous (current) track.

But I put it "on" en set the number on 20 but nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?

You can set crossfade options here:
Prefs (Ctrl+P) > Output > double-click DirectSound output > tab Fading

Specify for each action if you want crossfading and how many seconds.

Then there's also the crossfade buttons in the Eq/Config drawer of the Modern Skin. These correspond with the 'on end of song' action in the DirectSound output settings.

The crossfade in Winamp never has been much kop....I tried hundreds of settings over the years none of them worked. Even SQR Crossfade would crash my copy of Winamp.

I get better crossfading from another piece of software... see signature

Trying to run an Internet radio station with Winamp was maybe the "in thing" 20 years ago but technology has somewhat moved on since then...

Having a stream with lots of bad crossfades and sometimes silence between tracks isn't going to win you many listeners...

You need to sound professional otherwise people are just going to move onto another stream

You have to use a database server with RadioDJ and import songs into the library, Basic setup instructions for a database server can be found Here

You would use a Stand alone encoder to connect to shoutcast

If you require help with stuff to do with RDJ hit us up on the Community Forums where one of the many volunteer users will help you with any questions you might have.

Best advice I can give is take your time and learn how things work don't expect to get used to it within 5 minutes.

I tried it yesterday,but they are asking for SQL files,all my files are mp3..

[DJ-Garybaldy]

SQL is database server it has NOTHINg to do with mp3 files

You import them into your library when you've installed RadioDJ & MariadB or other SQL software

we'll continue this discussion on the RadioDJ forums now Breathe !!!
