Hi,
This thread enspired me to try Foobar2000, and I have to say I absolutely
love it! I have all my plugins in Foobar from Winamp, and have even
replaced some of them with custom-built Foobar ones which are much better.
An example would the SoundTouch plugin. I also have my broadcasting
plugin, EdCast, configured in Foobar now too. After using Winamp for about
3 years, I never thought anything would be better, but Foobar2000 is much
better for me and it is being updated all the time. So, I will say to
people who think Winamp is the best thing since sliced bread, give the
Foobar2000 0.96 Beta4 a try and see what you think, I think you will be
greatly impressed.

I think that fuber does handle winamp plugins, so I would say that there's
really not much of a reason to leave for winamp. the library, at least
under jaws, doesn't work correctly in later versions. if you have a large
musical collection, it can take many many many many megs of ram. mine,
with
around 20k plus songs, takes up around 45 megs of ram.

Hi Anders,
Regarding Winamp the installation is extremely flexible so you can
install as many or as few features as you want and need so Winamp
doesn't have to take up a lot of space. I like Winamp because I like
experimenting with some of the DSP/Effect plug-ins available for Winamp.
I don't have Hal so I don't know how well the Winamp library works with
Hal. Another reason I like to use Winamp is because of the excellent
Window-Eyes scripts now available for Winamp. However if Foobar 2000
meets all of your needs you might like to keep using it. So you have a
lot of options.
Regards Steve.

Actually i have been using foobar2000 for 4 years now.
However from the beginning it was a really neat and great player.
Though many functions i had in my first version of foobar2000 has been
removed.
For example, you now have to create your own hotkeys for play stop etc.
Now to my question.
Most people seems to use winamp and seems to be very satisfied with it.
But it seems to take up a lot of space though.
Now in the latest version of hal you can use winamp much more flexible
than
before.
The screenreader has got new map files and scripts.
So i am thinking to start using winamp again after 4 years.
There is a streamripper plugin also for winamp.
But why should i use winamp?
More than what i've stated above.
Can the library feature be used?
Such as the shoutcast radio functionality i had in older versions of
winamp.
Regards Steve
