help with playlist issue

djbrad98 · 17th May 2006, 12:55

Im a new member, and have browsed around looking for a way to insert a track into the winamp playlist as the next track (after the one currently playing) by doubleclicking on the file in windows explorer.

i see the feature of encueue on doubleclick,...but that puts the file at the bottom of my (very large) playlist...what i need is similar, but the file needs to be inserted to play after the current one has finished...then continue on down the playlist following it.

(i am a shoutcaster, and this will allow me to automate by using a program to "doubleclick" on a file at spacific times for hourly news, programs, etc... without bailing out on a song in the middle, and clearing my playlist

thanks for anyones help

go to winamp preferences > Jump To File
then open the register Shell Options

check the firs box, and check enquecke after current

this should do what u want!
