With the release of the iPod Support Plug-in for Winamp 5 you can finally start using that PC formatted iPod for something other than a stylish paper weight.
Installing the plug-in will add an iPod device listing to your Winamp Media Library. Then all you have to do is connect your iPod to your PC, point Winamp to the drive letter that your iPod was assigned, and start sending your MP3 or M4A tracks from your PC to your hip little portable device.
Winamp will also play tracks directly from your iPod so you can take your collection to a friends house and blast your tunes in style without ever having to touch his/her dirty dirty hard drive.
You can even free up space of your own hard drive by deleting useless programs like iTunes and Music Match.
What's New:
- if "[SS]" is found in comment, skip-when-shuffleing flag is set
- hidden winamp.ini setting 'albumArtResizeMethod' for image resize algorithm (default is BILINEAR)
- image format 1020 for iPod 4G (rotated 90 ccw, RGB565)
- a lot of bug fixes and minor improvements
Note: Since version 5.2, Winamp has had iPod support built in. Also, it supports almost all other portable media players.
