Unable to fast forward with Winamp

I'm using the External player with playlist option and when attempting to fast forward from Winamp the player just stops playing the track.
However I can start another song or the same it'll restart from the start, it's a little odd because when I look in the logs I can see this for example:

[2/22/12 11:48:18 PM GMT] INFO StreamController Got range: Range[2890008,9223372036854775807]

However as soon as the seek bar is moved or the arrows are used to seek through a currently active playing song in Winamp it stops playing alltogether.

Version 4.6 (build 2583) – December 6, 2011
Server jetty-6.1.x, java 1.6.0_07, FreeBSD
Player Winamp v5.623 (WinampMPEG/5.62, Ultravox/2.1)

Sindre is aware of of the problem and it will be fixed on the next update.
You need to add map_meta_data 0:0 to the transcoding string

Code: Select all
ffmpeg -i %s -ab %bk -v 0 -f mp3 -map_meta_data 0:0 -

Well it works for me :roll:
:mrgreen:

It doesn't look like the map_meta_data transcode string worked for me unfortunately.
It appears to still have the same behaviour :(. I guess I'll have to wait for the next release then.
