  1. Nice work on the new-(ish) update.

    The playlist and download functions are on the money.

    I use Vista & WinAMP 5.35.

    WinAMP crashes if I try to send a playlist from the Media Library to my player, but it's all good if I create the playlist in the player itself, so I have no issues with the plugin.

    Thanks a lot, Otiasj. Your hard work does not go unappreciated.

  2. Bug Report:

    Winamp crashed several times during different transfer operations. Eventually I ended up with a database on my player that had seriously mistagged music. Songs in the wrong album, gibberish in the genre field, misnamed tracks, etc. The music still played, but it was a mess to sort it all out when I got back home.

    Possible Cause:

    I can trace it back to one thing in particular. Illegal characters in Windows (eg. * or ?). If the tracks have illegal characters in their ID3 tags, when uploaded or downloaded they cause Winamp/ML_Sony to crash. This crashing happened so many times that I'm pretty sure it's what corrupted my database.

    Ideas:

    My suggestion would be to run a regular expression against each tracks ID3 tag before a transfer is made and replace or eliminate any illegal characters.

    How do you "run a regular expression against each tracks ID3 tag"?
