Winamp 5

[Matthew Gordon]

I'm wondering if anyone has downloaded the leaked alpha and played with it yet? I just got it, and it has been running very stable(ly) and quick with the freeform skins. Anyone who hated the slow speeds of Winamp 3 and wants freeform (WA3) skins should check it out, google search it and ye shall find.

Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5.

Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 1; Winamp 3 was a step in the wrong direction. I still use the super-quick-loading, light, simple Winamp 2.

[Matthew Gordon]

Of course Winamp 3 was a step in the wrong direction. WA# was a horrible, horrible failure due to how utterly slow it was. But when Winamp 5 goes as fast as Winamp 2 IMO...

Does it support Trillian's WinAmp plugin?

Suuuuuuure does!

In fact, it supports (most likely) all Winamp 2 plugins, although it has no WA3 plugin support.

[DirectPixel]

I don't mean a Winamp2 plugin. I meant the plugin for Trillian that is designed to use Trillian as a sort of remote control for Winamp.

[Matthew Gordon]

IMO, it is a Winamp 2 plugin, it just plug into Trillian Pro.

Regaurdless, I am using Trillian Pro and Winamp 5 right now, and the plugin is fully operational.

I hope your not talking about warez ?

[Matthew Gordon]

It's a leaked alpha. Just like Winamp 2.92, 2.95, and Winamp3 Build #499.

I havn't found too many bugs, but it isn't exactly totally _stable_
