[Q] .wma support in gingerbread/2.3.3

[prison_cookies]

I've been having trouble playing wma files on any music player except for PowerAmp (a $5 app that's nice, but I don't really get all that excited about equalizers). I didn't notice the problem until flashing CM7 (2.3.3 gingerbread) on my D1. I've done some searching, at it seems that support for some proprietary formats like wma and aac won't be available any more.

This is based on just one reply here or there in a random thread that was put out there and not really addressed. People get error messages from most players including the stock music player. I've tried a bunch of players that have worked for me in the past, but no luck on my gingerbread rom

Should i be converting formats, or is this something you think we'll likely see fixed in the future? Is there anyway I can fix it?

Did you tried Winamp..?

Tried winamp as well as the usuals (mixing, tunewiki, stock, cubed, mort,etc.). Idk what PowerAmp is doing differently, but it's the only one that will play them now. I Finally just converted some stuff to mp3s.

I'm still curious to know if it's really gb or not.

edit:
Well, I flashed about four different roms yesterday, and all of them give me the same result regardless of os version. no wma support. I'm also having some issues with bluetooth connections which no one else seems to be having, so maybe there's something hardware related going on. At any rate it doesn't seem to be a gingerbread issue like I originally thought. oops.
