When I submitted this post earlier, it didn't get through, so hopefully it will work this time.
Hello everyone, My name is Mike. I'm a brand-new member on this list; I just joined today. I'm in the process of preparing to become a dj on mushroomFM, and I'm trying to figure out which player would be more suitable for broadcasting, Winamp or Station Playlist Studio. Winamp sounds rather enticing, as it's free. This is especially nice for those of us who have tight budgets. Anyway, if I should decide to go the Winamp route, I have a few questions: 1. For any of you who use Winamp for broadcasting, do you know of a cart machine plug-in that will not only work with Winamp, but is also compatible with shoutcast? I'm looking for something that would serve as a virtual cart machine, which would allow me to play jingles and/or sound effects at any point during my show? 2. When playing songs in a long playlist, I've heard from other online DJs, that when you add a track to an existing playlist, Winamp has this quirky habit of placing tracks at the bottom of the list, instead of where its supposed to be. For example, You have a playlist containing 20 songs, and while the current track is playing, you get a request for a song, and add it to the list. If you wanted the requested track to play immediately after the current track has ended, is there any way to force Winamp to place the inserted track in the appropriate place, so that after the current track has ended, the requested track will then have focuss?3. I recently downloaded Winamp version 5.63. Is it compatible with Windows xp and window-eyes? Thanks.
