Yes indeed but the point is we're already seeing support issues with
various audio devices and so forth, given that Winamp is not being
developed any longer then its not likely those issues are going to be
resolved, that's a risk you take when you use any software or product
that is no longer being developed or supported.
As I've said many times, I just can't quite work out why anyone would go
out of their way to use something that's no longer being supported when
there are dozens of support alternatives out there which are just ast
functional, just as accessible, freely available with more functionality
than the Pro version of Winamp ever had, keyboard shortcuts abound etc.

There are a lot of people out there still using Winamp but the time will come -
if it hasn’t come already - when those people are going
to run into difficulties.
I’ve been playing with WMP for the last few days and I’m quite surprised at the
flexibility of the player, in fact I’d go so far as to say its been just about a
closely guarded secret <smile>.
Sure, WMP has some annoying problems in my opinion, its not very flexible when
it comes to playing Audio formats such as FLAC but for most people I’d imagine
this isn’t a problem and in any case, if you’re that concerned about playing
Lossless formats then you can use software to convert your FLAC collection to
Lossless Windows Media Audio.
My favourite player across platforms is VLC which just keeps getting better.

Thanks Dane, I think I may have a go at this. I've ignored WMP up to
now, but as Winamp is no longer being updated I'm starting to think
about other options.

Hi!
I'm setting up another Windows machine for someone who wants to stream
media files from the machine to DLAN compatible devices, in particular
a Surround-Sound Receiver.
I'm no expert when ot comes to the DLNA side of things and I know this
topic does come up on the list from time to time, another Google
search was in order to see if I could discover any new information on
the topic, and low and behold, I found what seems to be quite a nice
tutorial on the subject, thought others on the list may find it interesting,
helpful and instructive.
