WB Crashes Winamp

Thursday, April 24, 2008 by Astyanax | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I've been having problems with the newest version of Winamp (5.531). Everytime I open winamp it crashes instantly. I decided to try setting winamp to the excluded list under Per Application settings and it no longer crashes for me. Anyone else having this issues? It only seems to happen with 5.53, 5.52 did not have this problem.

Whew, I thought I screwed winamp up when it crashed after updating to the latest version.I uninstalled it but on re-install it was "locked" into winamp clasisic as soon as I switched from Bento.I'm glad to know it's being looked at. I miss having all the great skins from the community. I didn't save a copy of the old version...doh!

My initial thought was 'Well if you used a better media player like Foobar that wouldn't happen . . .'

But then I thought that wasn't that friendly and I'd keep it to myself.

Oops. Dammit . . .
