Hi Mike,

Pressing l when in the Winamp playlist editor will place the file at the end of 
the playlist.  There is a way of inserting a file 
after the one which is currently playing, but it involves changing some options 
in Winamp and also using Windows Explorer.

To achieve this:

1. Open the Winamp preferences with ctrl+p.

2. Arrow to the Shell Options.

3. Check the checkbox for each of the following:
Add 'Enqueue & Play' to Winamp's associated file types
Insert enqueued files after the currently playing file
Leave playback on the currently playing file

4. Open a playlist in Winamp and start playing.

5. Open Windows Explorer and arrow to a file you wish to insert.

6. Press alt+f for the File Menu.

7. Arrow to Enqueue & Play in Winamp and press enter.  This will insert the 
selected file after the one which is currently playing.

I am not aware of any cart machine type plugins for Winamp.

I hope this helps.

Barry Chapman

Hello fellow pc-audio listers:
I hope that you all have had a nice Christmas and that 2013 will be
good to you.
I wanted to ask you guys about Winamp. I recently downloaded version
5.63, which I've heard is very accessible with Windows xp and Windows
7. However, after listening to a discussion about Winamp on an old
episode of Mainn Menu from the ACB Radio archive, one of the
broadcasters said, that Winamp has a weird querkyness about it. They
said, that When you're playing a long playlist of items, and try to
insert a track into the list, instead of placing the track below the
one that's currently playing, Winamp will instead place the track at
the bottom of the playlist, which may not be where you want it to go.
Being that the episode of Main Menu I listened to goes way back to
April 17 2000, the information I heard might no longer be relevant. For
any of you who use Winamp for either broadcasting and/or personal
listening, is there any way to fix Winamp, so that it will place newly
inserted tracks into their proper place in a playlist? Also, is there a
cart machine plug-in for Winamp, that allows users to play sound
effects and radio station jingles? I know that Station Playlist Studio
can do all of this, but in case I'm not able to get my hands on a copy
of Playlist Studio, I might end up having to use Winamp for
broadcasting. I'm not giving up on getting Studio just yet, but if I
should need to, I'll have to use Winamp as an alternative. Thanks.
