Enqueue no longer works

[MrSinatra]

DrO,

one for nunz should still work for 5.63, right?

i wonder if maybe he has a virus or some kind of systray app or something that is hindering the alt-q and the one for nunz?

[kilipokid]

Just to add, this is a fresh install of Windows with a fresh install of Winamp. Winamp worked fine before I purged, now I'm just frustrated that it no longer works like it did before I re-installed everything. All the programs running on my computer were the same ones as before, only updated to the newest variants.

As for the possible systray stuff, I run Avast for antivirus and Comodo for firewall protection. I have shut off both those programs to see if that would resolve the issue to no avail.

[MrSinatra]

have you disabled the hotkeys the ATI does?

what i can't get past is that one for nunz does not work. something is stopping it.

i run avast (free) so maybe its your comodo or avast ver if different? maybe its somthing else... but on a fresh win7 install with a fresh winamp install, there is no reason O4N shouldn't be working.

Problem resolved!!

Turns out the newest version of Comodo is to blame. I uninstalled it and voila: JTF now works as it should. So note to everyone: the new Comodo Firewall might not be the best for Winamp.

Thanks MrSinatra and DrO and everyone else for sticking with me on this thread to try to resolve this issue! You guys rock!

Hi kilipokid,

I find it hard to believe a firewall caused your problem. Is this new Comodo product some type of combination package, including a firewall and other functions? What is it's full name and version number?

[kilipokid]

Comodo Firewall Version 6.0.260739.2674

One thing that is that part of the program is an application control component, which I never had an issue with on previous variants of the program. However they overhauled the program for the latest release, which might explain some of the issues I got. Kinda wish they still had an older version for me to install since the past versions never gave me issues (and were easier to use and customize too).

[MrSinatra]

the question tho, is what is it about what O4N was doing, in reporting plugins, that comodo would stop it? it seems well beyond the scope of a firewall, esp since i don't think O4N does any outside network traffic.

personally, i just use win7 firewall and avast free. thats enough for me, although BPs solution of making an old 486 his router and blocking ads with it, is very appealing.

[kilipokid]

One of the things Comodo's Firewall includes is a application/process control program to protect the system and the system registry from malware. It must have, for whatever reason, thought that O4N is some form of process that needed to be prevented from running. However, that being said I had no issues with older versions of the software (versions 4.0 and 5.0), so it beats me why version 6.0 now has issues with it.

Hi kilipokid,

Virus and malware detection programs can make errors (false positives). The major vendors let you send them a copy of the program that is flagged in error, so that they can make adjustments to their detection routines. Check the Comodo website to see if they offer this service.

[kilipokid]

Sounds like a good idea Aminifu. I'll check out their webpage and see what I can do.

Once again, thank you all for your help!

Ahh, a 6 year old thread, wonderful. Let's see how robust this community is.

I've just done a fresh install of Win10 and WinAmp 5.8 build 3660 with the classic skin, and encountering the same thing. I am accustomed to (on Windows 7) hitting F3 or J to jump to file, and within that list using Alt + Q to enqueue the selected song (instead of playing it right away). Now Alt+Q just gives a windows 'error' beep.

Was I using a 3rd party plugin for this functionality before maybe? Thanks for the help!

5.8 doesnt include JTFE, you need to first install 5.666 then upgrade to 5.8

[MrSinatra]

or just find the jtfe plugin from 5.666 and install just that.

personally tho, i recommend what musicf8 said.

Actually, just downgrading from 5.8 to 5.666 solved the issue, no additional plugin needed.

Thanks!!!!

[Aminifu]

The needed plug-ins are installed with v5.666. But, as stated elsewhere in this thread, they can be installed separately.

Version 5.8 is not really an upgrade. It is a beta version of the v5.666 upgrade that the new Winamp owners were working on that was leaked to the internet. The new owners then officially released it, since it was already being circulated. Further work on the real upgrade seems to be halted at this time.
