as far as foobar, that program is trash. Sound quality is worse than winamp and global hotkeys didn't work for me. | ||

You can then set it to Ctrl+Shift+Z/X/C/V/B and it'll do that certain command while in a different program. Since when did foobar2000 have lower sound quality than Winamp? Global hotkeys is built into foobar2000. I just installed the latest version just to recheck (not on my computer). I would be interested in knowing the lighted version of Winamp that can play everything and has global hotkeys, though. Sounds like around 3.0 is good. | ||

Thanks to IntoTheWow, I got to know foobar and well, I've been happy ever since. PobTheCad, what ver of Windows are you using? I'm using the lastest Winamp with Windows Vista, and that error does not happen to me at all.  ?Are you using a skin? or the ones that come with winamp?. | ||

2.666 is my preferred version - it has been working ok for me for a long time - but it has this one, very irritating bug; when I add say 20 files to an empty playlist, or scroll it down, the list has a very slow refresh rate - does anyone know how to fix it? | ||

Really, what do you have against it? It's perfect. Don't get me wrong I used to be a winamp fanboy ~5 years ago, and I still have version 3.something installed here somewhere. But foobar is just superior. | ||

EDIT: It also has something I couldn't find in other players: ![[image loading]](http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/713/wa1le3.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4010/wa2wr3.jpg) I like having my player on top  | ||

I was a Winamp user many years ago but these days there are so much better players (foobar for example). And using some very old crap version of Winamp isn't such a smart idea - it might be very vulnerable since it doesn't get any more patches. Not a good idea for a program which you use often. Either get the newest version (still sucks) or use another player. | ||
