Winamp 5.9 Final has just been released after four years of development and includes many improvements such as support Windows 11, playing https:// streams and various bug fixes.
Before streaming became the preeminent online stream musicς, οι άνθρωποι αντέγραφαν κομμάτια τραγουδιών από τα επίσημα CD και τα έπαιζαν σε υπολογιστές ή φορητές συσκευές αναπαραγωγής πολυμέσων MP3.
One of the most popular MP3 players was Winamp, mainly because of the psychedelic animations and skins that users could apply to the media player. As a result, Winamp had a huge following.
Winamp ceased development after the release of version 5.666 in 2013. However, in October 2018, the Winamp 5.8 leaked online, with the developers announcing that they will continue to develop the media player.

Διαβάζουμε στις σημειώσεις κυκλοφορίας του Winamp 5.9 Final: “Αυτό είναι το αποκορύφωμα της δουλειάς 4 ετών από την κυκλοφορία του 5.8. Με two ομάδες προγραμματιστών και μια ενδιάμεση περίοδος παύσης λόγω της πανδημίας “.
The most significant change in Winamp 5.9 is its portability applications from Visual Studio 2008 in Visual Studio 2019. However, this change caused problems for users who did not have the Visual Studio 2019 Redistributable installed.
With this final release, the Winamp installer will check for required Visual Studio 2019 files and prompt users to install them if necessary.
