Not a remake or remaster or rerelease of something old, but something inspired or influenced by something either popular or a cult classic. Also this could extend to hardware/tech too, not only media.

          No, I meant it as a question, does it take Winamp plugins 😂.

          Cuz I have this oddball mp3RPO plugin… sadly, I converted most of my media back in the day to mp3PRO (storage was expensive back then, I was a student, low on funds… 🤷). It’s a discontinued codec now from Fraunhoffer (the idea was the same as with HE-AAC, spectral band replication, but do it with mp3) and… I just can’t be bothered to redownload all of my collection to mp3/aac. There’s just too many titles and that’s the main reason why I still use Winamp on Linux, the mp3PRO plugin for Winamp 😔. If I could load that dll in any other player out there, I would gladly switch, but I can’t 😔.

              Shit, I had no idea 😱… I have to find this library, it must be burried somewhere in archive.org.

              And isn’t XMMS dead? Though Audicious is a decendant, I’d have to check if the library is compatible. Still, it’s a starting point!

              Thank you a million times kind stranger 🤗🤗🤗!

              EDIT: OK, requires a bit more work than what I was hoping for… the library is probably x86 only, so I’d probably have to use the x86 version of Audacious or any other XMMS compatible player, but still, as I said, it’s a starting point 🤗.

              I would just like to play them, I wouldn’t recode them, will loose audio quality cuz this will be their second recode.
