Is there any way that i can get all of my playlists from Windows media player onto itunes without re-uploading my CD's been trying to figure this out forever

[Traxxas_Junkee]

Yeah.


Go to your Windows Media Player, then click the properties of a song, see where the song is on your hard drive, write it down, then click Add Folder in I-Tunes, and just look for the folder where the music is on your hard drive.

so ill only be able to do it song by song?

[Ponch]

No-all of the songs should be in 1 folder. Just look at the location of the song minus the Artist name/song title that will be after the info you want.

[Traxxas_Junkee]

Yeah, what Ponch said.

That wont' transfer any playlists guys. that will only add the songs to the iTunes music library. Which is different from a Playlist.

You might be able to export the playlists in a format that iTunes can understand with WMP 11, but I don't use WMP 11 (crappy MS product compared with WinAMP) so I can't say so for sure.

Yes, I'm a WinAMP fanboy. I use WMP for playing most movies with VLC and PowerDVD for misc formats that WMP doesn't understand.

I am a winamp fan too. I use it and and a number of plug-ins to run my karaoke shows. It does the job way better that some of the 3-4 hundred dollar apps that are specifically designed for the same purpose.

winamp is buggy for online streaming content, but since I am running it on a dedicated machine that never sees the net that is a non issue.

For playing the movies however, even if winamp can process the format, I find the picture quality is better using windows media player.

I avoid video playback with Winamp (but the Nullsoft video streaming servers got some good stuff occasionally. I usually don't have any problems with streaming media from Shoutcast(winamp) and can stream it for more than 24hrs without a hiccup.
