so development continues...

grab it here: http://www.winamp.com/player/

some changes:
Made CD ripping only support one rip at at time
Better media library audio view support for no artist/no album
Fixed playlist editor classic redraw bug, made playlist handle mousewheel scrolling while moving items better
Improvements in gen_hotkeys
Upgraded MP3 encoding to LAME v3.95.1
Added OGM as supported extension in in_dshow
Modern skins updates
Added basic MP4 AAC encoding/decoding (I woudn't use it, but still...)
Fixed unicode metadata in in_vorbis
Fixed crash in installer code

does this finally mean that .mp4 files are supported?

Yes WinAmp now playes back both MP4 and M4A files. This is standard AAC LC playback (not HE AAC). Pro version will rip and encode to MPEG 4 audio files also, in addition to straight AAC. All in all a very nice update in my opinion.

geez, *sigh*...
I guess I have to do an extensive search next time I post a news-submission...
1. sorry for 'doubleposting'
2. ...but why do ppl so often post that kind of news in general-(...) forum parts?!
if it is a minor update, that's the right thing, but when interesting, groundbreaking or simply long needed important bugfix releases appear, I feel it should be put into val. news. am I the only one?

I agree that one of the threads should be moved to validated news so everyone can hear about this new release.
