Hi. Yeh, I would have thought so but I only got to the configuration options once but have not been able to replicate it. When I get the opportunity, I'll uninstall and start again but my experience so far with Winamp tells me the programme is a waiste of time. Actually all I really want to do with the programme is have a huge playlist containing thousands of tracks and play them continually in a random fashion. I would use VLC for .AVI movies. Walter.

Well, none of that should happen. heheh. I've had trouble configuring plugins with non-standard interfaces. THe winamp metroska/mkv one seems particularly suspect and only works about half the time anyway. I'm getting to the point of resigning to the need to use something like VLC for movies, but I don't really know if that's a concern for you or not. I haven't tried the crossfader plugin..maybe I'll give it a go and see for myself..but the spacebar should definitely activate the configure button under just about all circumstances. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Walter" <w...@blueyonder.co.uk> To: "'PC Audio Discussion List'" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2011 2:57 PM Subject: RE: Winamp, more help, please! > Hi.
