Hi everyone!
took out the version stuff, as I simply installed the version which is available right now...
I have a couple of little things, that are keeping me from enjoying MP - which actually annoys me quite a bit, as that's such an awesome program, and i only have those little problems to solve in order to make it exactly what i need.
1) in fullscreen mode i have some weird graphics problems. some times letters are missing from a word, i get white stripes which seem to be left from the transition processes. none of these problems i have when it's not in fullscreen. graphics card is a geforce 6600, resolution 1920x1200.
and: it doesn't do that always. just when wanting to take a screenshot, everything was fine. so - no idea what the issue is. if anyone knows it and knows a fix for it i'd appreciate it - sometimes that's just not so nice having those distortions in the picture.
2) with any tool i tried, i hated the music function. simply because it wasn't practical to use, as going through some 5000 songs isn't so easy with just up- and downbuttons
so i wanted something with some smarter searches (i was thinking of a search like the sony mp3 players, chosing first what to sort by, and then having chunks of ABC, DEF, etc to refine the search further. makes it quick even with just few buttons).
anyway, i use winamp and would like to keep it that way (like the favorites, the playlist functionality, it keeping track of what i listen to, etc). so the winamp plugin seems perfect. but how do i make that work? i can't select it in the music config tab, only bass or internal player. the plugin doesn't show anywhere either in mp.
i enabled it in the config, didn't do anything, neither with winamp open or closed in the background. didn't have a winamp plugin file in the mp directory either, but i guess that isn't required for the basic plugins?
well, if somehow with your help i get it to work, i wonder if the plugin accesses my current winamp playlist and winamp is actually also keeping track of what i'm doing, kind of like for the time of MP running, just magnifying winamp and incorporating it into the mp functionality while retaining it's individual advantages.
/EDIT got winamp to work by adding the extensions in the config, but that didn't exactly make it much better, tho winamp now handles the playing, which is alright. but: it kills the current playlist of winamp by adding single songs, replacing the others. it doesn't restore the playlist on closing mp either. it would be ok if it did that, but better yet: if it could just work with the current playlist! i'll play around with it
well, some answers would be greatly appreciated.
and, to whom it may concern: thanks for the great work!
