Software Update: Winamp 5.09

A website called Kool Lite Tools mentions Winamp 5.09, but Nullsoft, the makers of this popular media player, has no information yet. The downloads do come from the Nullsoft servers, so it appears to be a bona fide release. Winamp can handle many audio and video formats. In addition, the functionality can be expanded by installing plugins† The appearance can also be adjusted by means of skins† The software is available in the free Lite and Full flavors, and Pro version that requires a fee. For that, you can rip audio CDs faster, encode files in AAC and MP3 format, and burn CDs. The changelog for this release looks like this:

New:

• By popular demand all “hTtP force to ‘Now Playing'” support has been removed
• Deletes in the Media Library now move files to the Recycle Bin
• WMA Playback now works with WaveOut plugin
• NSV Subtitles can be disabled on the fly

Fixed:

• Authentication for OGG/Vorbis streams
• Drag and Drop strange behavior in open file dialogs
• Stuttering WMA On Start and Seek
• NSV Video stall during buffering
• Autosize of video to be accurate to the Video size not snap size
• Short NSV Clips audio cutout

Update:

• CD Ripping Library
• Online Media tree is now dynamic (More free videos on the way!)
• Sonic Install/Config flag mismatch.
