How do you change the default folder for Adding Media to the Library

mbeedub · 3rd May 2006, 14:19

When I do:

> File
> Add Media to Library

the dialog that opens always opens in

c:\documents and settings\{user}\winamp

How do I change that behaviour so that it points to the folder of my choice.

I've searched in the forum, help etc but to no avail.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

'Add Media' opens in whatever the current directory is set to.

Unfortunately Winamp will only remember a change to the current directory if you are using 'Add/Open File(s)' from the main/playlist window, not if you are using 'Add Media' from the Media Library.

In other words the only way to change the path 'Add Media' opens with is to change the path 'Add/Open file(s)' opens with. (press <L>)
