- The lousy decode speed is a problem with lousy file access and not something that a compiler will optimize, I think.

- MarkGrass, you need to make sure kernel32.lib and uesr32.lib are included libraries in the Linker configuration.

- in_cube 0.36 is up now, fixes a bug in VAG decoding.
I also made some changes to file info handling that might make sense, please tell me if this behaves poorly on Winamp 5.52.

- I'm having issues when I install the plug-in. It works fine, but when I go to "Open Files" in Winamp none of the supported file types show in the browser! When I un-install the plug-in, they'll show up again. Any ideas? Currently using v5.35 if that helps.
Edit: just updated to 5.52, problem still occurs.

- This is a known issue with winamp. Deal with it.
I generally make playlists of the stuff named !all so that I can still open stuff with winamp. You should note, however, my install is broken to the point that every file is shown, whether it's supported or not.

I don't care for your demeanor.
Thanks for letting me know it's a known issue, though.

- Thanks, MegaByte!

- Actually, it's not Winamp's fault, it's Windows. Windows is limited to 256/260 characters (something odd like that). With in_cube installed, the number of allowed characters goes *way* over that limit. Besides, who actually uses the "Open Files" menu anyway? I haven't used it in the last 8 years...
As for demeanor, I think you're reading more into it than is actually there. When reading the dictionary, I really doubt it's cursing at you... Sure, you might read it that way, but it's a book. It has no emotion. While ugetab may be a human (or not, I've never actually met him), I doubt he meant it in a rude or degrading way. Basically, the more positive you think of people, the more positive their responses are to you. Mouser X over and out.

- This isn't an official in_cube release, but I added support for MegaMan Anniversary Collection AUS audio.
It is WIP, since I haven't the time to figure out how VAG stereo works.

just to clarify this matter, the cut off limit is 260 and is related to the file length limits imposed on Win95 and which has remained since then.
the problem that causes Winamp to effectively show all of the files comes from where the cut off in the file extenstion list occurs - since it's all formatted as Description Null Char Comma seperated extensions. obviously if you know your DOS folder handling, you'll know that . effectively refers to the current directory and since Windows still maintains those features, when the string is cut-off and the last character comes as a . then it'll end up doing a show all action.
in 5.5 when i was working on the winamp core, i did some tweakage to the code which does what it can to prevent the string cutting off on a . and reverting the extension list back to the last full extension which will fit within the 260 char limit.
so as you can see it's not a winamp bug (unless you classify the program allowing input plugins to provide whatever filetype support they want to...) but is a quirky issue related to the Win95/file system limits from those days. now that Winamp is a Win2000 and up only app, there is a way around this (since Win9x support isn't needed) but it's not been tried to my knowledge and isn't something i've got the time to look into on the core myself either. but one day, maybe... heh
