Winamp Playlist Generator

To use the Winamp Playlist Generator feature

 

  1. Right-click items in the Local Media section of the Media Library or in the Playlist Editor window and select "Play tracks similar to..."
    On first use, the Playlist Generator dialog will appear and prompt you to Scan your Media Library.

  2. Alternatively, go to the Winamp Preferences (Ctrl + P) and navigate to: Plug-ins --> Media Library. Double click Nullsoft Playlist Generator (or highlight it and click the 'Configure' button).

  3. In the Winamp Playlist Generator configuration dialog, click the Scan button.
    The Playlist Generator will now proceed to scan all the Local Media audio files in your Media Library.

    4. Note: the Scan may take a little while. The more files in your library, the longer the complete scan will take. You can close the Configuration dialog if you wish, by clicking the OK button, and the scan will still continue in the background.

  4. Once the Scan is complete, you are now ready to use this feature.
    You can now right-click any local music files listed in your Playlist or Media Library and select: Play tracks similar to (title).

  5. The Playlist Generator will then add between 10 to 200 (depending on what figure you select in the configuration) acoustically similar tracks to your playlist, starting with the selected file, and will begin playing them.


    6. Note: This feature obeys the "Double click or Enter in Library = Plays or Enqueues selected items" setting in: Prefs --> Media Library -> Library Options.
