Hi Daniel,

I'm also new with winamp5.08 but I can say some things.
Open winamp 5.08
press: ctrl+p and then make sure that you are using the classic skin.
If not, and you use the modern one, arrow to classic and enter on it.
I think that it's enough and you can use every music file that you wish and 
winamp will be the first to jump and open it.

I hope it helps you a little
