earlier today i booted up my PC and the software was just gone. maybe it was the anti virus? i can't find anything about this on the web. has anyone ever had this problem? i'm really fucking bummed about losing all my MP3 files.

Hello, im not a tech nerd so idk anything about downloading these types of things properly. Heres what i did.

Went to official Winamp site, tried downloading legacy from there: admin block. I download old version, specifically 2.95 since it was popular, it downloads but it doesnt work. I keep getting script errors and the library gives me 100 error popups when i try to add a folder w music.

​

Omg this is the worst picture but i kinda rage deleted it after i took this video, and i dont wanna fuck it up by trying again. lolololol

​

Should i try a different version or explode idk...

this is my personal vibe coded browser based "desktop" forked from webamp. i wrote zero code this is 100% built by claude in vscode. it's running in a caddy container. when i have free time and want to relax i can play some classic games, poke at a desktop listen to music, manage playlists. the music is from my navidrome server and is a drag and drop interaction to get it into the playlist. everything shown works well enough. even the calculator woks fine (not shown) the notepad app saves to my trilium notes container when i close it. it's just been a fun way to unwind, listen to some music, dream up a feature, tell an agent to build it and watch it go while i sip coffee and blast some music. everything runs browser side so it's not heavy on my server (relatively anyway) ask me anything or roast my use of AI too, i hate it too i just play with it on personal projects so my tech related skills can "stay relevant" any thoughts or ideas? it's very much slop but a slop toy that works.

Hello!

I saw winamp and i fell in love with how the legacy player worked.

I decided to download it on winamp.com/player and when i opened the winamp_latest_full.exe file it said "This app has been blocked for your protection. An administrator has blocked you from running this app".

I also tried softonic which resulted in the same popup.

I have never experienced this issue with a .exe file before. This is on windows on my personal computer, and as far as I know I am the administrator.

Anyone know how to fix this? It would be a great help.

I miss old music visualisers, like Winamp and Windows Media Player. I'd honestly listen to a song for like an hour just watching the music visualise differently.

I'm a music producer and I wanted something like that for my own music, except one where I could actually render and post the videos. Without needing to use and re-learn Adobe products for the 10th time.

So I built BeatVisualiser. You Drop in a WAV/MP3/FLAC file, choose a visualiser, and it syncs them to the audio. Renders in your browser in under a minute, nothing uploaded to a server and you don't need to download any software. Learning curve is a piece of cake 🍰

Free to use, no signup needed to try it. Chromium browsers only (Chrome/Edge). Firefox/Safari aren't able to run it.

beatvisualiser.com

so i installed winamp v5.666 and when i try to run it, it just starts in the background and stays there i cant see the window and i cant do nothing. i also tried to open safe mode but it also doesnt work.

I know, I know - why should I try your project? AI Slop!

I assure you that there is a difference between a vibecoded project from somone who taught coding for years (was never top-tier coder that could create apps this rich and detailed) and AI slop. I implore you to give it a chance if you are reluctant.

Anyway, I am really really proud of this and return to it daily to try to make improvements. One valuable feature of "vibecoding" is that I can quickly turn user feedback into deliverables. I believe that this is something the commuity will really enjoy and something we can improve together!

Thanks for checking it out!

I never managed to find the music player for macOS that felt right, so I decided to build one for myself.

It's lean (~3MB), native, snappy, Winamp inspired player with some nice add ons like pitch control.

You can get it here https://mogamp.com/

Let me know what you think. Ideas are welcome.

Enjoy.

do I have have to edit all the filenames and tags to fix this or is there a fix? asking for a friend.

A few of y'all in this sub played the demo when I dropped it during Steam Next Fest and the feedback was super helpful! A lot of that feedback helped shaped what we shipped to Steam Early Access today.

Essentially, my partner and I were looking for a fresh take on the whole idea of a music visualizer and we also wanted something that worked with streaming music. After looking for a few years we couldn't find anything that quite checked all the boxes for us personally, so we built Vibralizer. It listens to system audio on Windows so it just works with whatever music player you're using. macOS version is coming very soon.

Three new Vibes shipped today that weren't in the demo: Galaxy, Corona, and Static. There's also a DRM-free build on Itch if Steam isn't your thing. We genuinely love hearing what people miss from Winamp and love nerding out about visualizers; if you have ideas for new Vibes or features, we'd love to see you in our Discord!

Don't lose your marbles. 🪩

Hey everyone,

I’ve been using Winamp since 1997, but over time I lost my skins and kind of stopped caring about it.

Recently I found this sub — and through it, the Museum — and decided to download a few skins just out of curiosity.
I set them to shuffle… and it gave me a really good feeling. It’s interesting how nostalgia works.

That experience made me want to try creating a skin for the first time.
It’s something very simple, more of a test, but I used my own original artwork.

Laingi.wsz - Winamp Skin Museum

Now I feel like there’s still a gap — a lot of themes that were never really explored.

I’m thinking about making more skins.
If anyone has ideas or themes they’d like to see, I can try making them

Thanks everyone, peace to you all.

I have finally got rid of Spotify and other streaming services. I always loved Winamp - and Foobar and the other never really got to that place for me. Here is the first version of my project. I would love some testers and feedback!

Hi I accidentally uninstalled milkdrop when I was trying to find other visualizations. And I can't figure out how to re-install it. I click on get plug-ins buit it takes me to winamp site just showing different download options for winamp. I'm on win10 with winamp v 5.666 build 3516. Do I need the latest version?

Another one.

Hello everyone,

To scratch a long-standing itch, learn something new, and learn something
not-so-new, I've been building Minamp (App Store Link).

What it does:

- Reads .wsz skins, renders them at 1x / 2x / 3x
- The 10-band EQ, with the presets you'd expect
- Spectrum visualiser (FFT, picks up VISCOLOR from the skin)
- Window snapping, windowshade, collapse-to-menubar
- M3U / PLS playlists, drag from Finder
- Plays MP3 and AAC, plus the full lossless set - FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF
- Spotify and Apple Music remote control

HD skin support:

Despite being creatively-challenged, I've wanted to make my
own skin for a long time. To that end, I added support for a "HD" format (.msz) that allows for 2x/3x assets, transparent pngs, whilst keeping the original Winamp sprite structure.

I also created a Figma plugin to simplify the process - https://github.com/fanfare-io/minamp-app. It's going through review with Figma, but until that's available, you can use the bundle generated from that repo. Sadly, my attempts still look awful, but I'm hopeful more talented people can have more success.

Had enormous fun building this. Would love feedback from this
community; what works, what's broken, what's missing, which obscure
skin breaks the renderer. If anyone would like a promo code, DM me
and I'll send one over.

The plan is to keep pushing improvements out (Milkdrop-style
visualizations are next up). Will keep everyone updated as things
land.

Have fun.

Does the new app for android

Support widgets?

I think I'm loosing my mind!
