RE: [ECS] Lockups while Winamp is playing Scott Reston Fri, 25 Feb 2000 09:40:58 -0500

just wanted to chime in here... i use ECS to control winamp on a remote machine. the
only control i use for winamp is wactrl and i've never had a lockup with 
it in the 6 months or so that i've been using it (and i use it a LOT)

and to chime in on MP3 uilities, an ID3 tagger that i've been using a lot is ShufflePlay
(http://www.pinoyware.com/shuffleplay/index.html). it does a real good 
job of renaming MP3s based on ID3 tags. it'll also do mass taggings if you want to say,
change the Genre on a whole folder of songs...
