No Music!!

ShininDiamond · 23rd August 2003, 07:29

I just downloaded Winamp3 and my playlist will be displayed, but when I hit "play" the songs don't play. Winamp just goes through all my songs like it playing them at warp speed. I don't know how to make it slow down so that I can here some music!! Help me!

A playlist is nothing more than a text file with "pointers" to the location of songs. If you MOVED any songs/media out of a folder to another, and the playlist still points to the original location of the songs, Winamp3 will not be able to locate the songs and will rapidly scroll through the playlist as may be happening with you. Is that what you did?

You will need to either...

1. Move the songs back into the original folder and continue using the old playlist
2. Re-create a new playlist from scratch pointing to the new location of your songs
