hi

when i do something to a track whilst its playing everythings ok but when i go to play the track again it reverts back towhat it was like originally

Make sure that that track is not read-only. In windows explorer (My Computer) find and right click on it and select Properties. Make sure Read-Only is NOT selected.

Could also be that files in the Winamp dir are Read-Only
eg. Winamp.ini Winamp.exe Winamp.m3u etc
Make sure no files in here are R-O, including the dir itself.
Also check subdir's too.

btw
1. What changes are you making exactly?
Altering Audio & EQ levels, or editing ID3 tags, or something else?
2. Nice name :D
Did ya know that David Soul (the Starsky & Hutch dude) has got a brother called Richard (R. Soul)

Can you give us a more exact description of exactly what you are trying to do, and what happens as a result??

im trying to edit my music files with the equalizer and simple stuff like that, also when ive edited my files i want to save them to CD with easy CD creator but it says that the .wav files i have converted them into are not good enough to write to CD with

Doh! :D

You need to save the EQ presets for each individual file.
This has got nothing to do with the actual mp3's. The data isn't stored in them, but works automatically c/o the winamp.q1 & q2 files (saved EQ presets).
This actual process is known as "Normalizing"

More info c/o TSGH -> Useful Links thread:

There's even a seperate entry in TSGH:
(which also contains links to the above 2 threads)

Regarding your other problem (WAV output format):
This means that the original MP3's aren't encoded @ 44.1KHz, 16-bit, stereo PCM Format. This is the standard CD-Quality format.
There's a fair few ways around this; check TSGH for more info:

Particularly read the 2 posts by Winsane further down the page.
