#209 Winamp Doesn't Open After ml_ipod Install

[Pat Branch]

I set up winamp 5.6 pro, then Ml_ipod 3.10. When I open Winamp, I get an alert message that says Winamp has stopped working. In the details, it says:

Could it be that I'm using Winamp pro? I've used ml_ipod with the free version before and it worked fine.

I am getting this issue as well. Did a clean install of windows, installed Winamp, but whenever I install ml_ipod Winamp crashes as soon as it is opened. Re-installing winamp does not help, the only way I can get back up and running is a system restore.

gen_audioscrobbler.dll's UI is incompatible with current versions of winamp. It's trying to open the UI so you can put in your last.fm username and password. Remove gen_audioscrobbler.dll and winamp will load. Another option if you have the audioscrobbler registry keys from another computer, import them into this computer and because the UI doesn't try to show itself, Winamp will work + you can use gen_audioscrobbler.
