Hi everyone,

-cut-

xmms-aac
-> import

xmms-wma
-> import
Hmmm, gtk1 xmms should die. This is only encouraging it to
stick
around ;-)


I disagree with you at an utmost level. I still think that it is one of the top 
audio players, if not the best one. If no one wants to maintain it I will take 
these plugins over without hesitation.


Have you tried audacious ?

Audacious is xmms, with the UI ported to gtk2 and a still alive upstream which adds new features like support for various audio formats including wma and aac on a regular basis.

Your time would be much better spend on fixing any features you miss in audacious then on keeping xmms on live support. AFAIK the only thing missing are some plugins which have not yet been ported to audacious, most have been and porting them isn't that hard, the API is mostly unchanged.

Regards,

Hans
