Burn Winamp playlist contents
July 25, 2005 4:07 AM   RSS feed for this thread Subscribe

I have a Winamp playlist containing hand-picked individual MP3 files from within a 12Gig directory structure. Is there an easy way to give this to Nero so I can burn my playlist ? Any other way to burn just the contents of the playlist, for free of course ?

Use this plugin to export your playlist to iTunes, and then burn the playlist in iTunes?

umm... just select all the files in the playlist (ctrl+a), right click on them, and hit "send to -> cd burner."

in your media library, under "Devices," you'll find your cd burner with the playlist ready to be burned.

I just open a 'create audio cd window' in Nero (sorry don't know the exact term, but where you can drag the files directly into the window, but instead of dragging the files, I drag the .m3u file - and it does the rest.

euch....missed closing some parentheses in there, but anyway - the message is the same.

I don't know if the above solutions maintain the playlist order when your burn the CD's. The problem I've run into in the past is that when I burn a playlist, the mp3 player in my car just sorts it by filename and then my ordering information is totally gone.

I just found that with iTunes it prepends the track number of the playlist to the song title when burning a CD so your order is maintained, something I find very valuable.

For the benefit of anyone that reads this, when I drag and drop an M3U file into the Nero window, it does maintain the track order in the playlist.

Unfortunatly, you cannot use PLS playlists in the same way, and you can only use this feature with Create Audio CD - not with Create Data CD, so you cannot create a data cd with your raw MP3 files using this method.
