Hi guys, subject says it all really.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a quick and easy way I can create an M3U file compatible with winamp?(just so it will play all the audio files in a folder in order).
I use to have a batch file someone sent to me once upon a time, but alas, have changed to windows 7 since then and no longer have it.
I did find a little app that was accessible however it wouldn't work for me though to be fair, not sure if I was doing it right and there was no readme. Sorry, at work so not able to find it to link you to the program i used.
Thanks in advance. :)

you on about all your files on your computer? open win amp up:
control E playlist open,
Control N new playlist,
Shift L add all the folders/drives you want,
let it render a couple of minutes then control S. save the playlist when you want, ensure you check the combo box so you know where the m3u is saved.

Ah OK thanks. That is a great help although I just meant all the files in one folder so thanks. :)
