Thanks to gaekwad2 for the heads up in the forums.

Nullsoft Winamp is a fast, flexible, high-fidelity media player for Windows. Winamp supports playback of many audio (MP3, OGG, AAC, WAV, MOD, XM, S3M, IT, MIDI, etc) and video types (AVI, ASF, MPEG, NSV), custom appearances called skins (supporting both classic Winamp 1.x/2.x skins and Winamp 3 freeform skins), audio visualization and audio effect plug-ins (including two industry dominating visualization plug-ins), an advanced media library, Internet radio and TV support, CD ripping, and CD burning.

#13 Posted by alerosenfeld on 21 Oct 2005 - 01:46: Coming Soon: Multi-user profile support (preliminary support enabled)

Yey, but what wxactly is preliminary support? I'm using a plugin for that right now, its great but doesnt seems to work very well, so native support would be just great. But what exactly is currently supported?
I'm worried if it will conflict with my plugin.

Edit: Well never mind, I finally found a post about it in the Winamp forums. As it is disabled by default it wont interfere at all. I still wonder if it will conflict if the plugin I use.

#15 Posted by Staind on 21 Oct 2005 - 04:36: I found that most fixed features ain't used by me so I better off stay at 5.1, but anyways great news.

#16 Posted by capeche on 21 Oct 2005 - 07:11: Cool!

#19 Posted by The Cub on 29 Oct 2005 - 20:51: Winamp 5.111 Released

If you were experiencing crashes with 5.11 (especially with the auto EQ feature on), you'll want to upgrade to 5.111.

What's new:
* Fixed: works with internet explorer 3.0 again (old win95/nt3.51)
* Fixed: Auto-Preset EQ crash (non-mp3 files)
* Fixed: $upper, $caps, $caps2 crash with foreign characters
* Fixed: Station Info crash (with http filtering program)
* Fixed: empty playlist bugs
* Fixed: [in_mp3] proxy ignored when ‘only port 80’ was checked
* Fixed: [in_midi] lyrics not working

I have posted this to the software news section.
