Anyone get this prob in Winamp? by Tasha on 06-03-2005 at 09:09 PM
In the latest version of Winamp, 5.092, at times, when playing .wma music files, I pause, then when I come back and unpause, my music plays for a few seconds, then cuts out. 
Then I have to press pause twice for it to work again.
Does anyone else get this, when playing .wma files, or .mp3 files? I've asked about it on the Winamp forums, but was just wondering if anyone here had the same. 
Please don't tell me to "go out an buy an iPod", " go out and buy a Creative Zen Micro" becuase I don't have the money, and don't want to get one. Also, please don't say, "use WMP, 
" or "use iTunes player", becuase I don't want to.
EDIT: Oh, and i've tried re-installing Winamp.. Didn't help.

* Zephyr updates his Winamp player...
Doesn't happen for me. It just carries on playing fine when i unpause for .wma and .mp3.
Have you tried uninstalling, then re-installing Winamp?

Yep, thats what i've done.
It's odd. It only happens in .wma, and not all the time either. Its sorta random, though it does happen reguarly. It's a pain in the butt. :\ It doesn't happen on .mp3 files though. Still awaiting another reply on the Winamp forums. If its any help, here is a more detailed explanation (its what i posted on the Winamp forums):

When running the latest Winamp, I puase my music when I go away from the computer for a minute or two. When I come back, and click the pause button again, to unpause, my music plays for a second or two, then cuts out. I then have to press the pause button twice to get it to play again.
I have tried a full re-install, but to no avail.
Also, this evening, I was listening to a song, and it suddenyl just kept cutting in and out.
I have run 'Hijack This', and it is not a problem with 'winhlp32.dll'. I have also never visited a website called 'mp3university'.
The songs I am listening to are ripped from a CD to the computer.
I have only had this problem since the last update of Winamp a few days ago.
Winamp Version: v5.092
OS: Windows XP Home (legitimate version)
File type being played when problem occurs: .wma
Thanks for any help.
@ Sikstyles: Nope, it doesn't. I mena, its probably happened on every song in a way, but its completely random, and I know its not my PC, and the .wma files are ripped from a CD, and the CD is perfectely legitimate.

Well, the person helping me hasn't mentioned an update, and it seems he has had the same problem, and was fixed by turning something off. But the problem was, what he turned off, its already off on my Winamp..
And I think the problem that has been solved, is a different sort of problem to mine, because I read through a thread to do with it hanging, and it didn't really coincide with what was going on with mine.
Here is my thread on the Winamp forums: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=217930

I also have 5.092, but I don't seem to have the wma problem you describe... I tried with a few wma files, but it never occurs when I pause and unpause.

The new winamp ... the 5.09 one .... stops everytime around 26 secs when i play Boulevard of broken dreams but i have that song on a disc and when i go and play it on my home theater it plays properly
Btw ... the song is a .mp3 and it plays fine in WMP too .... this happens only for that one song and also happens for one .avi vid that i have but that happened even in the old winamp So i guess thats a prob of the vid
