You can also check your Khz... if you're getting 44 you're picking up the PRO signal... if you're only getting 22 then all you're hearing is SST through a tin can. |

Maybe you only tried winamp 3?
I quite like winamp 2. Maybe you should try this new winamp 5. When you disable all the new extra features like the new skins. It is a quite nice player. Without many resources in use.
*checks his winamp 2 resources*
Hmmm still 7 MB memory in use. Oh well :-) |

Regarding to Cal, google is your best friend:
http://www.saunalahti.fi/~cse/html/foobar.html
Look on this page for the Nero Encoder/decoder v0.3.7 Which should be able to decode mp3pro files.
Hope it works, didn't test it myself. |
