2021-02-23 21:09

The Winamp Community Update Project has released Preview version 1.0.20.7170 with many fixes and improvements for the Winamp media player.

WACUP is a project by ex-Winamp developer Darren Owen to fix bugs and extend the Winamp 5.66 media player's functionality through the program's plugin feature.

Using this plugin feature, WACUP can fix known bugs in the final original Winamp 5.66 release and add new features for modern operating systems and services.

On Monday, the project released WACUP Preview 1.0.20.7170 that fixes a massive amount of bugs and includes new features such as better Windows 10 integration, playback options, and better compatibility with streaming plugins.

In 2018, Winamp 5.8 was leaked, resulting in Radionomy officially making it available for download from the Winamp site.

At the time, they stated they planned on releasing Winamp 6, but the company has not released any further versions since Winamp 5.8.
