Winamp 2 Kernel Streaming Output Plugin, Wanna try out my KS output plugin for WA Options

[Chun-Yu]

I just wrote a simple Kernel Streaming output plugin for WA2 - check it out at http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~cshei/out_ks.dll. It's very experimental right now - it just uses the first output device it finds, and it's currently hard-coded to use 10 output buffers (so it might skip if you have all those WinXP visual effects enabled). Source code is at http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~cshei/out_ks.zip (a VC++ .NET project - sorry VC++ 6 users). I just wrote it this afternoon, because Microsoft released a Kernel Streaming demo today . I'll be adding tons of stuff soon, including SSRC resampling (for those who are blessed with fixed sampling rate DACs ) and selection of output device and # of buffers.

Annuka: using Kernel Streaming should prevent ALL other programs from using the sound device, which should solve the "Silence Flash" problem.

Edit: By the way, if you do give it a try, give me some comments/suggestions

I think I used to have that one and went back to an older version thinking it would help, but I went ahead and got the newer winamp and I still can't get it to auto-advance my playlist. This is beginning to seem like a lost cause.
