Latest restricted WACUP beta release is build #18654 (March 24th 2024) (x86 & x64 changelogs) | Latest WACUP public preview is build #17040 (September 30th 2023) (x86 only)


NOTE: Beta testers are added in a limited & subjective manner as I can only support so many people as part of the beta test program to keep it useful for my needs.

Unless I think you're going to be helpful, not all requests will be accepted but might still be later on. Remember that beta testing is to help me & the limitations currently works for my needs for this project.

Youtube URLs no longer playing in WACUP since latest update
« on: April 08, 2021, 12:49:32 PM »
Hey Guys,

Long-time Winamp & WACUP fan here and user!

Since the last update mysteriously my Youtube playlists and even individual URLs are no longer working - anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Luke

That's odd as there's checks made on the ytdl exe to avoid such situations. I'll have to recheck what's going on though the main thing is your sorted.
