I am using WinAmp V5.572 (latest as of now). Commands like below that used to work don't work now (I admit that I have not used PH to control WinAmp in a long time).
ph_winampctrl("playfile",0,"C:\01 Back to Paradise.mp3")
Anyone else seeing any WinAmp issues?
My PH .ini file has the right path to WinAmp. It does launch and close just fine.

Try removing the spaces from your file names.
I don't think this was a problem with earlier versions of
WA, however.

Thanks Brady - Removing all the spaces from the file name seems to have made this work.
Dave - Is this bug worthy?

Update/more info...
When I execute:
ph_winampctrl("playfile",0,"C:\Documents and Settings\SMarty\My Documents\My Music\ACDC\ACDC-Misc\ACDC - Big Guns.mp3")
I see the following text displayed on the WinAmp Status bar:
Documents
and
my
my (displayed twice)
ACDD
-
Big
Guns
WinAmp seems to display the word of the file path just prior to where an empty space is (in the file path).

It looks like I've gotten this to work with spaces in file names:
ph_winampctrl("playfile",0,'"Z:\music\boston\boston\peace of mind.mp3"')
Basically I added a single quote around the file name for PH and then the double quote for windows to swallow the spaces.
Hope that works for you.

A quick follow up since the font doesn't easily show which quote is which: The inner quotes around the file name are the double quotes, and the single quotes bracket the double quotes (they are on the outside). Sorry for the poor formatting.
