Please read the thread title before you post, this is not the appropriate thread. And don't cross-post.

Sorry about that my mistake.

Sorry if this has been already answered...

I went to support site today and it was marked unsafe by Clearcloud DNS server. I have already noticed them, and now is accessible again.

Was there any problem with site, or was it just a mistake?

Did they state a reason why it was unsafe? ClearCloud apparently uses a blacklist (not a whitelist), so perhaps their detection triggered on some plugin DLL (similar to a false positive with a virus scanner).

No, I don't have a clue...

I just send report (automatic on a rejected page) and leave an e-mail for confirmation.
 Shure hoping, that it wasn't justified...

if it was justified, the site would still be blocked. it's not updated that often...

Oh false positives from the various silly AV and things are fairly common unfortunately, just need to roll with it.

It wasn't that long ago that a skin was being picked up as a deathly virus of doom so I'm finding it difficult to take any of their warnings seriously anymore. :P

Maybe it'd be nice to have a section of Winamp plugings that work with XMPlay on the support website.  I'm not talking about the "Winamp Input Plug-ins" section.

What kind of plugins are you referring to then?

Other types of plugins like the DSP ones.  It's save people the trouble to try out lots of Winamp plugins to see if it works in XMPlay.

DSP Plug-ins. Do you have some additions?

Some of the plugins are severely out of date.  Is there a way for users to submit or update plugins via the plugin comment field pending approval?

It's easier if you could post links to the new versions in this thread.

nice wee site, helpful people, knowledgeable

i'd like to see a nice dark forum skin, i love dark themes ;-)

just a good skins section, maybe a sticky category (no replies) just offering simple instructions for most of the basic features, ripping to flac, wasapi, tags, play-lists etc, nice n easy for new folk to jump in, find and fix, a step further, creating a few child boards within xmaply category, eg one dedicated to plug-in support, skinning, general xmplay stuff, or for the real tech heads a room for the pros to talk shop

One thing I'd enjoy on the site is the little updates of XMPlay and some of its plugins (such as the midi plugin), found in /stuff/ of Un4seen. However, I could see this as a problem as I do not know how site/server communication works. Plus, this thread seems more focused on the design. Windows' briefcase anybody?

Links to the latest "stuff" updates can be found at the bottom of the XMPlay webpage (under "Latest stuff"). If you would like XMPlay's built-in update notifications to include those updates, you can add an "UpdateStuff=1" line to your XMPLAY.INI file.

I meant hosted on the support.xmplay.com site, as it is the only site unblocked at school.
When I try to access it there, it says it is blocked because it is listed as .
Yeah, just .

You could take your personal copy to school with you so that you don't have to download it every time. Or think of a good reason and ask the administrators to unblock un4seen.com.

I have a personal copy with all my plugins and encoders.

Don't let the man keep you down.

Seems like the suppoort site is displaying with no style, just like when pages have yet to load the css...
Can someone check and/or confirm this?
