Good to see that three decades on music apps are finally catching up with basic features from Winamp. Maybe one decade the other basic features will be available too 🤪 #Winamp #AppleMusic #Spotify

Mastodon, necesito vuestra recomendación: Estoy buscando un reproductor de música para Windows tipo Windows Media, pero que reproduzca sin ningún problema todo tipo de FLAC (Windows Media no puede en algunos casos). Algunas cosas que me gustaría que tuviera:

1 - Que sea relativamente ligero y fácil de usar.
2 - Que permita organizar una "biblioteca de música".
3 - Que sea software libre y gratuito (que si me decís todos que Winamp es una maravilla, pues ok, pero si hay alternativas, mejor).
4 - Que no sea VLC. A ver, es lo que estoy usando porque sí reproduce música en FLAC, pero no me gusta porque no cumple con los dos primeros puntos o al menos yo no consigo que los cumpla.

Mein IRC: /j #vsg

Als glorreicher Vorgänger von Discord & Co. bot das IRC seine Dienste an. Gamer aus der ganzen Welt wählten sich auf Chatservern, ebenfalls aus der ganzen Welt, ein. Mittlerweile aber hat es an Bedeutung und einstiger Größe verloren. Wieso aber? Nur weil die Clients keine schicken GIFs, wie Discord sie bietet, haben?

Winamp's visualization plugins transformed music listening into a psychedelic art form, with community created plugins like MilkDrop generating real time fractal animations synchronized to audio frequencies that became as important as the music itself for many users. Ryan Geiss's MilkDrop used sophisticated mathematical algorithms to convert audio spectrum data into flowing, morphing visual experiences, spawning entire communities dedicated to creating and sharing visualization presets with names like "Flexi's Mindblender" and "Unchained's Particle Storm." The plugin architecture exposed deep audio analysis capabilities, allowing developers to create everything from simple oscilloscopes to complex 3D environments that responded to bass drops, tempo changes, and harmonic content in ways that made every song feel like a unique light show. When Geiss open sourced MilkDrop in 2005, it led to ProjectM, a cross platform implementation that has kept the visualization dream alive across Linux, Android, and modern media players like VLC and Kodi. Today's streaming services prioritize convenience over customization, but projects like ProjectM prove there's still a hunger for the deeply personal audio visual experiences that made Winamp feel like a digital synesthesia machine.

#Winamp Skin: Sony Stereo v2

20 years later, still not a single program can beat #Winamp at music playing. Damn, I miss Winamp.

Missing the days when #winamp was the thing and PC was less about internet explorer
Google had just launched and ug s d worry more about the power dynamic than empowerment

Si la prioridad de #Audacious es una interfaz tipo #Winamp que no funciona en #Wayland, creo que ya es hora de darle la patada definitiva a este reproductor de audio.

Me quedo con #fooyin, que será solo #Qt, pero al menos soporta de forma nativa Wayland y #PipeWire sin más tonterías. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/06/audacious-4-5-beta-improvements

@ink_ase Si que es chula. Winamp tenia muy buenas skins que convertían el reproductor en pequeñas obras de artes (otras eran una mierda XD) a día de hoy son compatibles con el reproductor audacious. Si quieres echar un vistazo, en el enlace que te dejo hay infinidad de ellas, para mi visitar esa pagina es un ejercicio de nostalgia que hago de vez en cuando. :bun_cry:

A día de hoy busco que las skins del Winamp que uso sean lo mas minimalistas posibles, pero a finales de los 90s y principios de los 00s sentía debilidad por la skins que imitaban a los reproductores hi-fi físicos de la época. Supongo que de alguna manera me fascinaba poder tener a mi disposición uno de esos caros y voluminosos aparatos en la pantalla de mi ordenador.

Funny thing about #Music and #SelfHosting Now that I have my music locally and not in a cloud through some streaming service, I notice that there was normally a "big" wait from the time I pressed the play button until the song actually played compared to the self hosting way. Now the music plays instantly..

Reminds me of a time long gone when #WinAMP and #XMMS were the default players of local media!

God it's good to be back..

TLDR; Framework 13 laptop coming back from the dead, list of parts/things I want to fix. Specifically screen and keyboard due to modifications creating issues.

Looking forward to reviving my #framework13 back from the dead. I had a Batch 3 11th Gen Intel 1165 mainboard and it was suffering from the USB interference issue, so I quit using it. Which led to the CMOS battery dying and rather than fix that issue, I sold off the last device made by a big corp: Macbook Air M1 base model.

(I still have the iPad Air 5th Gen since it's a tablet I only use for consumption.)

I also have a Samsung Fold 4 for my phone, but at least with that I have more control over it.

I really wanted to go Linux only as much as feasible at home. I have a desktop that runs W11 so I can play #starcitizen and run #winamp as a #podcatcher and media playback of my FLAC files.

So for the time being I'm using a machine that was malfunctioning (Dell Latitude) and funnily enough a BIOS update actually fixed the problem it was having so I decided to stress test it as a daily driver while I worked out how to bring the Framework back from the dead. Shockingly, it's held up in comparison to what it was doing before (keyboard was intermittent, but I'm writing this on that laptop now and not a problem with it.) so after I get the new mainboard I'm going to pull my parts out of the Latitude and get the Framework up and running fully. I only need to get new RAM, going from DDR4 to DDR5, but I'll use this as a good opportunity to also update the WiFi card from the old Intel card (it's so old I can't do faster than 40Mb/s on it, but it worked in monitor mode so at the time I was willing to make that tradeoff) and get into something a bit more current.

Eventually, since it is a Framework, I want to replace some other parts because of choices I made as a modder. Firstly, I modded the original keyboard to Dvorak, and I needed nubs to find the home row. Well, my choice in using Loctite caused damage to the screen (I had let it cure for 24 hours before closing the lid but that wasn't enough) that is superficial, but it's visible and a distraction. So my plan is to get the higher res display especially since it helps with scaling.

Then I want to get the clear ISO (well, I live in the USA, so that might not be entirely wise...) keyboard and have a 3rd party make up a clear sticker set (if he does a see through variant that would let the backlight shine through I'd actually prefer that, but take what you can get) so I can build the Dvorak set without needing to swap around all the keys.

After that, it's mainly just replacing parts of the chassis that has had improvements done like the original hinges, the lid to the CNC version, a new finger printer reader (I dropped it once or twice on the same corner...) and adding 1 USB storage module so I can dual boot between Windows and Linux on distinctly separate disks with a shared partition that they both can handle without issue.

This is why I bought the Framework: I can fix it over time and it may seem like it's going to cost more but in practice I'm saving money by buying only the parts I need to replace. Just don't drop the darn thing and it won't be as expensive to fix! LOL

Wie geil ist das denn bitte?! Alle #Winamp Skins und dann auch zum sofortigen ausprobieren. https://skins.webamp.org/

Successfully deciphered all tracks shown in this shaky video I took in December 2000 with an analog camcorder.

But who can identify this extremely weird Winamp skin?

Please boost for reach!
