    Winamp 3 & DVD / DIVX

    As anyone who has played with winamp 3 will know that it also plays movies, but does anyone know if it's possible to use it to play DVDs and DIVX?
    And you say people actually pay money for M$ Windows?

    The last release of Winamp 3 I tried made my movies skip horribly, is that still the case? Also, can the movies in winamp3 be fullscreened and de-fullscreened by only using the mouse?

    Of course I should have realised.

    Anyway hears a screen capture for your amusement. Anoyingly it's the correct way up with Windows Media Player.

    I'm having a bit of trouble figuring whether this black square is upside down, or possibly even sideways.. maybe it's mirrored!!

    Remeber your video overlays people

    You can't print screen on a video overlay. Try another screen capture program, or give up and use mediaplayer. Perhaps a third party winamp 2 plugin would work??

    Cheers
