Ok, so I have WinAmp v5.01 and today while going through my poi videos I opened one and the video was upside down. Yes, completely upside down. Not 2 minutes before that I watched another video using WinAmp and it was fine but now every video I open with WinAmp is upside down and I have no idea why or how to fix it. Has anyone ever heard of this before?

You could turn your monitor upside down. "You can't outrun Death forever.

was it by chance a divx? If so it's your codec. Open it in media player

Ok... Just as oddly as the problem came, it went. My friend came over and I wanted to show him what was wrong. Mind you, 5 minutes before he arrived I tested to see if it was still messed up, and it was. I opened a video and it was fixed. Have no idea what the hell was going on.
I like using WinAmp for videos because I have plugins that enhance the sound which I dont have for Media Player.

maybe your friend has some strange capabilities and he fixed your Winamp transcendentally while knocking on your door or whatever so he could later make fun of you: o)
or maybe not...
Smile.. It confuses people..:)

i had the same problem running winamp and windows xp pro i found that it was just the codecs you could try getting ace mega codecs pack from divx.com or do a search for it in google failing that just reset windows media player to default and that should fix the problem

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain...
still can't believe it's not butter

i concur, i've only ever seen this specific error with divx avi's being played with older codecs.
