Is anyone else having a problem with this and Winamp 5.1?  For me, Winamp will close almost immediately after opening.

You need to replace gen_ml.dll with axialix's modified one and all will be well. Doesn't anyone read instructions anymore? :no:

For those of you having problems with Winamp 5.1 and this skin, please try the version attached (rename to clearONEbeta.wal if desired). I finally got mine to work, hopefully this one will work for you too.

BTW, I'm working on another gen_ml.dll for Winamp 5.1 (the new one for 5.1 is a bit larger). You can still use the one on my site for 5.09, but it's NOT required. All it does is change the font and size of the ML buttons, that's all. If you're happy with the standard MS Serif font, then there's no need to use mine.

clearONEbeta.zip

:D Thanks Sky, you're right. This skin really needs to be finished.

Also, I don't want this thing breaking with every new version of Winamp. And since there seems to be a lot of confusion over my versions of the gen_ml anyway, I might just remove them all from my site. However... I have updated my site with the new gen_ml.dll for 5.1. I was wrong about the 5.09 dll working with Winamp 5.1, it crashes it immediately. Sorry about that.

I don't get it...I updated to 5.1 from 5.094 with clearONE already installed, and Winamp crashed a few seconds after starting it. I replaced the updated gen_ml.dll with your 5.09 replacement .dll, and it worked fine. The same thing happened to a few other people when updating to 5.1 as well. I installed the modified skin files you put up earlier reverting back to the updated .dll, and it also works. You're saying it's the other way around? :wacko: Either way, it's working. Thanks for your hard work on this.

Whilst this is an amazing skin, is it just me that has trouble docking the player at the top and setting to autohide? If i do that, the window just disappears completely. I know its still there as I can right click and get the menus, but there are no graphics being shown. I then have to shut winamp, change to default skin and then put back to Clearone :blink:

I'm having a problem with the font settings... I installed the font file, but in some areas of the skin, ex. playlist and media library, it shows up in the default winamp font. I don't know what I can do to change it..

This is such a great theme, just wish I could get this font problem sorted out :unsure:

Just to let you know, I have been using the skin for months, and am well aware of the installation procedure. Thanks axialix for updating this to address the issue.

Abandoned, press F5 when the skin disappears, that should bring it right back.  This is a bug with Winamp itself, it happens with all skins.

Frappe, see the screenshot to change the PL and ML fonts to NonstepNew.

Worked a charm, thanks for that, never noticed it before but not used winamp in a while :jump:

Yes, there will be a final release. I'm working on it right now, but it's rather slow because of my busy schedule. I've already added a few items (main window freeze, notifier stay on top option, etc.) and given it a totally new look, but there's still a lot left to do.

I do want to thank everyone for the continued interest. You won't be disappointed. :)

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
