Pinned KARAOKE ENTHUSIAST CHAT

Sorry - I don't know much about it as i haven't used winamp in ages.

However I spent some time searching & found the name of the in_zip program & think with the aid of the wayback machine. I may have found what you need. I'm not sure it'll install or work, but fingers crossed.

And therein lies the problem, I have already been there and checked any

likely links but all of them have given me 404's.

 

So that leads onto my second question, which I'll put into a fresh post

(change of Subject init?)

SO! What do you use for viewing zipped mp3+g files on

your home computer ??

 

I don't mean all-singing all-dancing host software.

 

I just need something that will play the audio in a zipped mp3+g file

together window for the graphics, preferably without using too many

resources, a quick startup would be nice.

 

I used to have WinAmp permanently running almost permanently on

my previous Windows machine, and it was simple job to drag a ZIP file

onto WA and have the audio and a lyric window running in two seconds

or less - and I could rename the zipfile if it was incorrect while the

karaoke remained running, (cos WA cooies the MP3 and CDG into

memory and has no further use for the ZIP.

 

And if WA not running, right-click on ZIP and press H >> [Run with] and

then select WinAMP.

 

So:

Quick start.

Must run Karaoke GFX if they're there.

Ability to edit ZIP file while ZIP content is being run.

 

Any offers out there???

 

What do you use on the ole desktop ??? Not looking for karaoke hosting

program - although typing that reminds me that Sax n Dottie's program

ran on top of WA

I use Karaoke Builder player 5 - just successfully tested the ability to rename the zip file while playing the Karaoke song.

Hi BJ I use an old version of karafun. It plays mp3+g ZIP files and will play mp3 +g disc as well. The new karafun plays mp3+ g files but to me is kinda a pain. It doesn't play discs

If you do opt to download an old karafun make sure to unclick check for updates

Legend?? Legend in my own mind maybe .

 

And you did help, which is what it's all about in these forums, helping

each other to help ourselves .

If you shy away from Legend how about Pioneer? : )

WinAmp. Help please.

 

I'm absolutely stymied.

 

For years and years I've used WinAmp to quickly check zipped karaoke

files on my computer. Yep I could use VirtualDJ but excellent as it is for

hosting a karaoke show, it's carp for simple everyday jobs at home.

 

I remember that I used a plug-in called, I think, in_zip to play the

content of a zip archive, and another called CDG_Plug-In_, to play the

graphics on both MP3+G files and from CD+G discs.

 

I've found the CDG Plugin, but can't remember for the life of me exactly

how to install it; when I open WinAmp it's in the plugins, but it doesn't

play a CDG file along with the associated MP3.

 

My WinAmp install is version 5.666, and it's installed in

C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\Winamp.

 

If you have advise then please offer it, if there are instructions then

explain to me as though I was a 10yr old.

 

 

I was just thinking again. It looks like you don't have the latest winamp version which is a good thing! I'm not home so I can't tell you what version I have. Anyway try clicking on options on the winamp screen, scroll down and look for preferences. Then look for the mp3 plugin and configure or activate, I don't recall which. That's what you need to do for it to work in older show presenter software. I hope this will help you
