A while back I was realy surprised as I have downloaded some mp3 files and tried to hear them in XMMS which was wiorking fine but then, it opened a new Window to play a VIDEO! Since I have no video-plugin or such, it was realy surprising Audacious can not do this and crash without any warnings and error messages if a mp3 files is realy a video. > You know why I was using xmms as opposed to any other audio player? > > - it takes less screen estate > - it plays any sound format I have thrown at it > - doesn't crash / lockup / ... > - no annoying bugs *I* run in FullACK! :-) ..and I have over 58.000 WinAMP 2 skins!
