So yeah, the new versions of Winamp have this slow MP3 decoder which takes up a ridiculous amount of CPU usage. Which old versions of Winamp use a faster decoder?

I know there's also the option of using Directshow to handle mp3 files, and while that does go a lot faster (gotta love ffdshow!), it doesn't display track names correctly, or let you edit tags by double clicking on the track name.

Did anyone make a better MP3 plugin for winamp yet?

I'm still using an old winamp version from jan 06.... just because I was sick of updating for all the damn security updates.
