Re: Winamp Version 5.50 Build 1550 Beta is now Available

2007-09-16 Thread Barry Chapman
I installed Winamp Version 5.50 Build 1550 Beta, but now when I press the JAWS 
keystroke Insert+t to get title information, the 
number of the track in the playlist is not spoken.  Have others experienced 
this?  Is there a way of having the numbers shown or is 
this a bug in the program?

Thanks,
Barry Chapman
