Hi Chris,
Since version 5.090 there has been some type of intermittent problem with a
DLL file. Sometimes and on some systems, even though the DLL is registered,
Winamp acts as if it isn't and thus certain features don't work or work
poorly and some focus issues result. Sometimes--not always--if you are
having focus issues during one session, simply unloading and reloading
Winamp will fix the problem--temporarily at least.

Subject: Winamp 5.094 and focus in the playlist editor window
Hi all
I just updated to the latest version after hanging out at an earlier
version for a while because the later versions always crashed my system. I
knew the newer version had some interesting updates so I installed the new
one and it works great all accept for one *really* annoying problem. When
you add a song to the playlist, what's supposed to happen is that you
should be able to press your up and down arrows and read all the songs in
your playlist. But in this new one, what happens is JAWS loses focus. It
seems to land you somewhere in limbo. So to get back to the playlist
editor you have to press control plus tab twice. After that you can read
the playlist just fine. But when you're doing a radio show where you're
adding a bunch of songs manually, you can probably see how annoying this
can get. It got really annoying, really fast. I'm thinking this is
probably a focus issue, like the scripts aren't doing something they should
be for some reason. Maybe the scripts are looking for something that isn't
there, or maybe it's something else, I'm not sure. But I'm hoping that the
script writers can maybe take a look and see if they might be able to come
up with a solution.
From what I've heard, this focus issue has been around for a couple of
versions, so I hope it can be looked into.
I don't think Window-eyes users are gonna have much of a problem but if you
do, be sure to let us know.
