Winamp 3 is playing videos backwards and upside-down?!

RZetlin · October 7th, 2002

Okay this is so weird.

Can someone explain to me why Winamp 3 is playing videos backwards and upside-down?

**Kane** · October 7th, 2002

For some reason, Winamp 3 doesn't use filters like DivXG400 and DivX anti freeze which solve this.

when i play videos in winamp3 the color is all blue

I've never used Winamp 2 to play anything!! I always use Winamp 3 to play various music formats and Windows Media Player 6.x to play Videos (with the appropriate codecs installed).

RZetlin · October 8th, 2002

I decided to go back to Winamp 2.81 because I didn't see any benefit from Winamp 3.0.

I am sticking with Windows Media 6.4 for videos.

I also find Winamp3 pretty lame, use it just because of the Media Library and Skins.

I got Winamp 3 just for the novelty of it. It's missing many shortcut keys and options that Winamp 2 had. Also, Winamp 3 has a much longer loading time.

the best player is DzMovies MMP.. extremely small.. i think like 70 kb... same as wmp except it uses lot less recources... works great

Same story here, except I bit the bullet and went with WMP7, because it has enhanced codec support, and is a lot better with Divx.

jegHegy · October 9th, 2002

argh, why do people keep using WMP? it's so bloated, and annoying -.-

nyaa

Realone Player is very good, it has CPU usage variability, U can take it to lower to lower CPU usage, I just did that and guess what it is using 2 Percent of CPU only, just like Winamp 2. Winamp 3 uses around 6 to 8 Percent.

Maybe because they like it? I use WMP 6.4 anyways.

If you guys read the notice in winamp3 features site,...it says that it uses larger resources and need more RAM than winamp2,........

jegHegy · October 10th, 2002

Kingstar: heh, at least they admit
Esturk: yeah, but it lacks features @_@ like pan&scan, and subtitling

nyaa

Esturk · October 10th, 2002
