flyracerx · 10-19-2003, 12:19 AM

is there a DFX for this version? also, where do i get skins?

shpdb · 10-19-2003, 03:28 AM

no cross-over track feature? maybe im not looking hard enough, but i liked that feature. other than that, looks nice, always loved winamp.

flyracerx · 10-19-2003, 08:41 AM

I dont like winamp 5 too much. I've had it for about a week now and i've noticed a few bugs already and it runs slow as hell on my comp. The bug that pisses me off the most is when you select several mp3s and then right click and click play in winamp, and alot of times it will open to instances of winamp and start playing 2 mp3s at the same time. Anyone else have that happening to them?

you must have it to open multiple instances in the prefs then

hardly uses any cpu time at all on my computer..must be time for you to upgrade
