??? help with winamp controls in some skins
Friday, November 29, 2002 by goodmorphing | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I think I understand that I need a winamp plugin so that I can use the controls on some of the skins (I have winamp 3). I was looking over there and downloaded something, but I guess it was mostly for the visualizations.
Or am I doing something else wrong, because I can't use those controls lately.
I did pick up a lot of pretty stuff over there, though.

Thank you. I guess I will do that. I just didn't want to hijack the comment section, and it felt kind of strange bugging someone through their email.

The Winamp plugin comes with WB when you install it. I don't think it's been updated to run with WA3 though.

There is a program which was written specifically to allow plugins written for wa2 to work with wa3...The link to it was published *somewhere* on this site, probably the newsgroups. I looked for it, but couldn't find it. It's out there somewhere.

Thanks WW! I'll go poking around here for it. I hadn't been using winamp, but then I discovered the visualizations and I was hooked!

The plugn for Winamp 3 is available here:

Some people say it crashed Winamp 3 so badly they had to reinstall it. I have not had any such issues with it and it did work for me but as always YMMV. Don't say I didn't warn ya!
I should say I don't use Winamp 3 much preferring Winamp 2 which has crashed less for me so not sure how stable the plugin is.
