Try Detailed view in Explorer but from what you've said, it would probably still read "Winamp media file". You can also try change icons for each file type individually to distinguish them. Winamp is using a universal description for all extensions it's associated with. It seems to be inherent in the program by your descriptions, but I can't be certain of that. Check Winamp's settings to see if there's something there. The behavior exists because the new Winamp is rubbish.
As for the .mp4 file, it is merely a container and does not openly state the video's encoder. Winamp is a poor video player, but it does support DirectShow and a filter pack like CCCP should work with it. If you use CCCP you're better off with MPC anyways. Another vote for foobar2000, since you've just switched to Winamp it shouldn't be a hassle to change again. With the proliferation of PanelsUI and ColumnsUI configurations, it's relatively painless to customise the player. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

This thread on HydrogenAudio has some shared configurations, as well as the components required and instructions to setting them up. They all tend to use the same components (PanelsUI or ColumnsUI) so it's easy to learn. Also check DeviantArt and Customize.org for more foobar2000 configs.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |

Hehe, I for one don't have file extensions displayed as it's less clutter. File type in detailed view and icons are usually enough to determine the extension and there are only so many extensions you regularly come across.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
