Add dir causes songs to be added twice

[fifreak]

When I use the Add dir option to add a directory, all of the songs are added twice. This happens regardless of whether i check recurse subdirectories or not. I also checked, there are NOT any pls or m3u files in these dirs, just mp3s. I have Winamp 2.71 w/Win2k.

Thanks

Then the only other thing that can be causing this is if you have 2 different input plugins that handle mp3 files.
You'll need to disable the one that you don't want to use by going to the Winamp\Plugins dir & renaming it to something like "in_mp3.dll.off" (make sure Winamp is closed first.)

If you have installed an alternative mp3 input plugin, each time you upgrade Winamp the default in_mp3.dll will also be re-installed & re-enabled, therefore you'll have to rename it each time if you want to continue using your alternative plugin.

Why anyone would want to use a different input plugin beats me.
The latest default one is truly awesome!

btw, If this isn't the case, then I've gotta admit I'm truly stumped!

Thanks! That was it! I tested some other mp3 engine a while ago. Back to the default mp3 decoder. Problem solved...thanks
