within the composed region (the one you can change with sysregion)
- fixed image cache problem when using the same bitmap as a map and a button image
parameter

I found it. :D

Still subpar on sound quality and effects and video quality. Excluding .aac support. Pain in the but finding it's plugins.
Imagine it still has lead on streaming options and plugins, but I don't broadcast.

Only reason I even have it is for recieving its video streams.

I'll stick with jetAudio for audio and some video etc., along with MV2 Player, Zoom Player, Crystal Player, and PowerDVD's Mpeg2 codec. Not to mention Quicktime for .mov components. WMP9 just for verifying things are working.
Geeze that's 8, I have a few too many, Ya Think. I bet I have tried probably 100 or more even.

I have 2 ... :rolleyes:

jetAudio for everything and VLC for SVCDs and DVDs.
I also have Winamp installed just for reference. It comes in handy sometimes.

The problem with winamp is that is takes my hell lot of ram energy. you can not play games or use another program while use winamp.

The thing i like in it is that we can make our own AVS Vis..... this is kind of cool :cool:

WinAmp v5x is a DOG and the WAv2x is much betta for resorce usage.

I feel AO(HELL) are killing off Nullsoft with there comerciality/moneymaking practices.

There are still a lot of bugs in WinAmp.
It cannot play *.*DAT ie video CDS
As i said it takes a lot of ram energy we cannot use another program while playing songs.
Computer many times does not respond while playing songs.
Its equaliser is not as power ful as that of jad.

and many more.

JAD IS THE BEST!
