The thing that fools most people is that while in the playlist editor, when pressing enter on a song the song won't actually start playing. the best way to know is to arrow up and down in the playlist editor window and it *should* show you what tracks have been added. if it doesn't and you hear nothing but blank blank blank, it might be time to make sure you aren't using the modern skin. the modern skin and screenreaders don't get along well together. Always use the classic skin whenever possible. As for the media library? I've never really had that much good luck with it. I've always used the playlist editor to add songs like that, so i wouldn't be much help with the media library.

You know, I found that same problem with me. I wonder if these versions of winamp have changed? What version of windows are you running? I'm running windows 7. I thought because it's 7 it's different. -----Original Message----- From: winamp4theblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:winamp4theblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mike Bernard Sent: February-24-13 5:09 PM To: winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: creating playlists and using the media library in Winamp 5.63 Good evening everyone: Is there anyone on the list, using Winamp version 5.63? If so, could you tell me how to create a playlist in this version of Winamp? When I open Winamp, I control tab to the playlist editor, and then press L. When I do this, a dialogue box pops up, asking me to insert and/or select a file. The only controls in this dialogue, are the combo edit box, the files of type drop-down menu, followed by an open button and a cancel button and finally, the look in drop-down menu. I shift-tabbed, into a list view, which was the folder where my files were, and navigated to the file I wanted to add. After finding it, I tabbed until I got to the open button, and pressed enter on it. This caused the dialogue to close and I was placed back in the playlist editor. However, when I arrowed up and down to see if my selected file was inserted, it did not appear to be there. The above steps I performed, apparently did nothing. Also, I read in an article I found online containing a list of Winamp shortcut keys, which says, that you can gain access to the media library by pressing alt plus L. I tried this, but that doesn't do anything either. How do I access the media library? Thanks. Mike Rochester, NY. To post a message to the list, send it to winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
