Recommend Winamp Plug-ins

[Jojan]

Hello.

What plugin or plugins for Winamp do you recommend?

I'm recommending Ogg-Vorbis encoder v1-1 (http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details.php?id=143936). It's an very easy and good format converter. Makes you CD-tracks, mp3, wav and many other formats into .ogg, even if it is only said to be an CD encoder.

people still use winamp?

.ogg files downright irritate me, I have nothing that plays/converts them, plus does anyone actually use them?!

I use winamp. What do you use?

[Endymion]

i use banshee and sometimes exaile.

what i meant is that the way music on the desktop is treated has been evolving, and winamp no longer fits very well.

[T-6005]

I still use WinAmp, and I've never run into any problems aside from the occasional annoying misclick.

The reason I use winamp is that, of the programs that audioscrobbler supports, I like winamp the best. I straight-up hate wmp and especially iTunes. I really like creative media source, but it just doesn't work with audioscrobbler.

What's better about the programs you use?

[All About Eve]

I have a history of bad problems with WinAmp. Just bad luck sort of things more than anything else, but as so I don't use it often. Usually I just listen to my iHome. But on the computer I mostly use wmp because of the Audioscribbler plugin/easy accessibility, and winamp once in a while for those annoying/obscure extensions.

By the way, WinAmp came with OGG playability two updates ago for me.

What's better about the programs you use?

the entire desktop is moving toward having a more ingrained online presence, and those applications work on that. they automatically bring in shoutcast and last.fm recommendations and playlists, etc etc etc.

jammix enhancer is quite sexy

150 gigs? Seems pretty large to me.

[ilovellamas]

I don't know what a shoutcast is.

[nieh]

I use winamp with no plugins. I don't need it to do anything more than what it already does.

[ilovellamas]

I use the tray control plugin. Other than that... all the plugins were already there.

I find it hard to believe that's you've tried them all... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audioscrobbler#Audioscrobbler_plugin)

I personally use foobar2000, which I think is made by some (ex-)Winamp duder. It's simple and advanced at the same time!

I used to use Winamp though, but I never really liked it. I just didn't bother to look for anything else.

[ilovellamas]

I didn't mean for it to sound like I've used them all. I meant that of the ones I have that I know it supports... which are winamp, wmp and itunes.

[Sinister]

I used to love WinAmp and how I could create visualizations with it. Maybe that was a plug-in. Still, it rocked. But iLike iTunes best, and I don't know of another way to get my podcasts.

[the_GoDdEsS]

I mainly use WMP. As for .ogg files, I don't mind them ever since I got a codec. They seem to have good quality and Wiki uses them in audio files and samples frequently, so it's kinda useful to have.

[HeadAroundU]

I had been using Winamp a long time ago. I hated WMP for some unknown reason, now I love it. I don't have to install anything. I don't feel like trying anything new.
