Now that Winamp has resumed development what place does WACUP have?
I wanted to like WACUP but found it very crashy.
I wanted to like WACUP but found it very crashy.
As for what place it has, I'm going to still make it because I've very clearly been made unwelcome to remain as a "winamp" user plus I don't like where it's owners are taking it with all of the ntf related stuff & taking the piss out of the user base for so long. So if I want to have something that can keep my plug-ins working then I've got to make my own player which is what I'm doing.

You're saying its a reimplementation of part of Winamp? Cool, I thought you were splicing in new functionality to the existing binaries
There's still some live patching / splicing needed for some of the plug-ins that are still re-used from 5.666 as part of the current beta builds along with WACUP having the ability to run minus EQ & modern skin without the winamp core exe. As there's a few things from that exe which the modern skin plug-in requires to work which I've yet to work out all of the interfaces to allow the plug-in to work. It's part of what's been holding up a new preview build as I just need to be as free from having to leverage bits from Winamp as possible.

Sorry to hear you were having crashing issues. Mine has been stable but I also spent some time going through all the settings and dialing it in exactly as I wanted. I run it at 2x scaling on a 4K monitor and it looks terrific in all it's pixelated glory.
