WinAmp problems

Post by Jim Smith »

I recently installed WinAmp and my SteelRadio experience is much better, however I'm noticing issues that may or may not be configuration related.

If I insert a CD, it gets the songlist from the Internet and plays fine. However when I insert another CD, it doesn't update and doesn't autoplay. In fact when I hit play it's screwed up and tries to play the same tracks as the original CD.

If I click on an MP3 on the Internet, WinAmp opens, but it plays the last MP3 I had played, not the one I clicked on. Clicking on subsequent links download the MP3, but they don't play. I can drag them into WinAmp, but this is certainly different behavior from other MP3 players I have used.

Any ideas?

Installing the just released version 5.05 seems to have fixed it, at least for now.
