Always use direct sound output, you can't go wrong, unless your
recording program needs to use it at the same time Winamp is using
it. In that case, one of the programs is gonna win. That's when you
need to use wave output when running Winamp, at least temporarily.
The volume control is in deed much more responsive when using direct
sound output.

You can configure the wave out plugin to alt volume monipulation
it's slow, but will change the volume.

Hi Tom,
uninstall Winamp, and make sure you delete the Winamp directory in
the program files on your C drive.
After that install Winamp version 5.6, which can be gotten on the
Winamp site.

Hello Joe and list: I also have been consulting another
list! After looking around, I finally found where to switch from
"Direct Sound to "wave output (and vise versa) no soap! If I
switch to "Wave output (which actually did resolve the problem)
but then if I turn Winamp down, I turn everything down, which I
don't want! So I had to switch back over to "direct sound!" As
for unloading Jaws as you suggested, again no soap! When Jaws is
unloaded, there seems to be no way to use the arrow keys or
anything else! Since Winamp is my default player, I've not tried
Windows Media; I'm not even sure that you can fast-forward through
a file with Windows Media anymore (I do know that you cannot go
back) I also know that you cannot go directly to a certain spot in
a file with Windows Media like you can with Winamp; these are
reasons why I prefer Winamp over what few audio MP3 players I have
used! I do appreciate all of your efforts to try and
help! Hopefully (one way or another) I'll get this resolved and
will report back to you if and when I do!

tom,
This was a long shot. it may have no bearing on your
problem at all.
start winamp. remove JFW. then see if you can navigate the track
data in winamp.
Had any luck with the output pluggins?
any luck with fast forwarding in WMP?

Joe and list: Just tried that; problem there is: without Jaws,
I can't do anything at all with Winamp as (and someone correct
me if I'm wrong) but it uses the Jaws scripts I think!

Hey Tom,
Does this happen without a screen reader loaded? can you set
that up to find out?

Joe

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?
