Hey Joe and list: Thanks for responding; may give this a try! Just to
clarify something: the actual "sound" isn't so bad; it's just that, if
something is playing at low volume; let's say I want to listen to a stream
that doesn't play at a high volume, I'll get that static (or hiss) or
whatever! For those who don't know, in Winamp, to advance through the
file, you can hit either the left or right arrow key (I know it works this
way with Jaws) may be something different with other screen readers;
anyhow, one can also hold that arrow key down to advance through the file
quicker; it is here that gets me into trouble as I get that bad sound!
But will try Joe's suggestion (unless I get one that may be better) and
see if this clears up the problem (I've had this happen a long time ago)
but don't remember how it was resolved!

tom,
You could try an alternative output pluggin.
go to prefferences control-p, press letter P till you hear plug ins,
press O till you hear output, then tab to the list, there is a waveout,
and a direct sound.
Select the plugin that is diffedrent to the current one, tab to close
accepting the default settings.
see houw your audio sounds after this change.
Then maybe try playing the same file in, for example, windows media.
don't know how you fast forward in WMP though.
good luck,
Joe

Hello list: I assume that not many people saw my original post,
concerning a problem I'm having with Winamp since I re-installed it over
the weekend! So I shall repost it again in hopes that someone can tell
me how to fix this: if I'm listening to a file in Winamp; then I want to
skip ahead, using the arrow keys, I get a horrible noise that I cannot
get rid of..except if I restart the computer! Even shutting Winamp down
won't stop it! Also, I notice that if I have Winamp playing at low
volume, I'm hearing some white noise; it's like a "hissing" sound!
Hopefully somebody can tell me what to do; I think it's something maybe
in preferences that needs to be either checked or unchecked; whichever
the case, I very much would like to be able to get this resolved! And
I'm sure there are many on this list who use Winamp as their player of
choice, so please feel free to jump in there and let me know what I need
to do?
