Winamp 5.5 Support by gatekeeper6838 at 5:43 PM EDT on September 22, 2007
Anyone gotten 64th Note to work in Winamp 5.5? I realize that this is a beta version of Winamp, but it's pretty sweet! Any plans to support this version?
Edit: I probably should have provided a little more info; If you try to play a miniusf file it will cause Winamp to crash. It also may not help that I'm running Windows Vista, however 64th Note seemed to work in Vista when I was running Winamp 5.35.
disable the spectrum analyser for the time being which should resolve the usability issue. it's still unclear if it's a winamp or a 64th Note issue (since things have been altered with winamp's handling of the spectrum analyser in the 5.36/5.5 betas) - just with everything else, there's not been the time with the winamp dev team to check out the issue so far (though it has been noted if only on my todo list).
Thanks for the tip! I got it to work using the Winamp Classic skin w/ analyzer turned off, but it still won't work in the modern skins. For now, when I listen to usf files I'll just switch over to classic. Keep us posted.
have you tried the suggestion i made? alas we [winamp dev team] ran out of time with everything else that needed to be done (one of the failings of a forced release date time) to look into the issue (tho it seems like there's a few other plugins which are exhibiting the issue now)
i think i've found the issue and got a fix for winamp.exe causing the crash but will need to have it checked over and verified (i'm a total noob when it comes to asm)
just not using the spectrum analyser or modern skins sorts out the issue. is a corruption in some float to int code that for whatever reason craps out with the data in_usf and a few others pass onto winamp (weird i know since the popular formats don't have the issue with idential spectrum data being passed)
yeah this is bugging me too, but I find if it doesn't hard crash you can skip to the next song quickly and Winamp is fine. Either way I'm not gonna hear my N64 music...
what I'm wondering is if you can just turn off the spectrum analyzer for this kind of file?
Yeah. As I said before, I can only get it to work in classic mode with the analyzer turned off. It sucks, especially if you like the new Bento theme. But, that's the price you pay for adopting new software. It could be worse... it could have stopped working entirely.
well it's the best (and only) workaround and until 5.51 ships there's little else that can be done (unless you revert to 5.35 which won't work correctly with bento from what i remember as it needs 5.5+ features)

how about you just use a build that has the visualization code removed?
Is such a build floating around out there somewhere, or would you have to compile it? If you had to compile it, could you disable the visualization code without much effort?

yeah, it's just a matter of commenting out some 1-3 lines. i'll build it if you want.
I just got the 5th email about this issue today, which (as with the others) I pointed to this thread. Glad to see people are listening to USFs and finding my address for complaints, but... Any ETA for 5.51?
no idea (but considering the dire fortnight i've had with time on my pc for any coding, it'll probably be far sooner than i'd like).

I dunno 'bout you folks, but if you're interested in a temporary quick fix, there's that Winamp 5.51 Beta currently in testing; just read the first post carefully so you know what to do with it! ;)
5.51 Final is out.. i've tested a few usfs and it seems like they fixed the bug :)
abnormal sample rate mp3 encoder? by Franpa at 12:37 AM EST on March 3, 2008
is there a program that supports live recording of music at abnormal sample rates? would be good for turning these tracks into mp3's for play on my mp3 player >.>
i like optimal quality so that is why i am after something that can record them at there orignal sample rate.
