Winamp 5 Beta

[ServaCom]

This might be it.

Winamp5 Beta

Edit: nope it's still the alpha :angry:

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

why do people do this? why lie? it's stupid. its really still the alpha? H.

[LUTZIFER]

It doesn't have to be regedited. It can easily be a Winamp3 skin, as there are some very simular to that already.

It could be just a skin being used on Winamp5 Alpha or just in Winamp3.

Or, it's quite possable it's an AOL media player.

Anyways, some proof will be needed to show if it is in fact Winamp5 BETA.

JDawg: I think he's looking for a mirror and he got the wrong file. We are still waiting to see if anyone gets the REAL 'beta'. I would get it but I don't have IRC at school.

I thought Winamp5 is supposed to be out soon? its a bit late for a Beta if its true

I have the beta...If someone can host, I can send it to you right now.

[Gromvar]

Aquadex- Plz post an image of the credits for us we need proof that it's the BETA

[SidVicious]

It's real...installed fine here. :)

[Eli]

Looks fairly legit. Was it leaked or released on purpose? I don't want a whole bunch of mirrors being shut-down again for 'illegally' hosting Winamp Alpha/Beta software.

[Veedems Veteran]

if I could get the mad plaugin to work on 24bit playback, I would leave foobar for winamp again in a second

dougwhiteley AT lycos DOT co DOT uk

i can host it

[madj]

mail it to blacksei at zoom dot co dot uk

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

i checked the IRC channel and apparently it is real. we just need some links.

[xxdesmus]

i can host. just get me the file

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

im hearing that the leak is intentional and nullsoft is tracking anyone who installs it... for whatever reason... is this even legal?

[preducer]

is it stable ? i like the new look...

[Veedems Veteran]

I wonder if this is to coincide with the release of iTunes. Maybe detract some attention away from it in the community.

[Eli]

I dare them to track me.

Dear User of Internal Software:

Please uninstall the beta of the latest winamp release. If you do not, we will send a ton of flying ninjas to attack and kill you in 48 hours. This is your 48 hour 'or-ninja-death' warning. Please comply. We can't send out 300,000 ninja's JUST to Canada. We only can employ 100,000 so it might only be one ninja. BUT DON'T TAKE YOUR CHANCES.

Thank You.

Winamp Development Team.

Note: This isn't a real email in case you are wondering.

[Keito]

I just got it... it's awesome, feels like a RC to me :p

Everything with ALL the skins works and even winamp 3 and 2 plugins work here :o :D

I'm pretty happy now..

[AcdShdw]

next time u post something like this dont bother to do a stupid go here on irc to get it cause it takes for friggin ever to get the dam files , just post a damn link next time

[Eli]

Solarix: If he had a mirror he probably won't post it in case of violation of rules. 'Go on IRC' was probably a good safe idea.

[AcdShdw]

violating what??? its a beta, helll we had the damn service packs here when they were beta's for xp

[AQUaDeX]

next time u post something like this dont bother to do a stupid go here on irc to get it cause it takes for friggin ever to get the dam files , just post a damn link next time

you friggin respect what others do for you, if you are too damn lazy or stupid to get it from irc then don't get it

it's not a leak from Winamp's site and no one alone have the friggin facility to host the friggin 4.58MB file, so the only friggin way to du it is via the friggin IRC

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

i want to know some more validity to this tracking stuff.
