On the DL

A directory watcher and automatic playlist enqueue plug-in

Watches your music directories for changes and adds new files to the end of your playlist.

Staff review

The concept is straightforward... you tell it to watch certain directories for changes...for instance, if you add a new song to the directory, it will add that file to the Winamp playlist for you. Unfortunately, I couldn't get this to work right... I tried it on Win2000 and WinME...but, everytime I added a file to the watched directory, that file did not show up in the playlist until I reloaded the playlist. Hopefully others have better luck.

Good - it does what it supposed to do. its works fine with winamp 2.8 and windows 2000. i agree exactly what Michael Postmann wrote. - January 8, 2003 by fenix brood

Sorry, it doesn't work - With Win2000, no result. Bah... - July 31, 2002 by Manu Devil

Cool! This is the feature I've missed in Winamp!!! - It works fine (Windows XP, Winamp 2.80). I copy a file to my MP3-dir (even with the Command line !!!) and it is shown in the Playlist after 1-2 Seconds. Amazing! @Staff: The file is attached to the playlist. So you have to scroll down to see newly added files! Maybe you've forgotten that ;-) - June 10, 2002 by Michael Postmann

Fine plugin - This plugin is working perfectly well for me. That's what I've searched for a long time. I can now listen to the songs as they are downloaded, whitout the need to manually enqueue them. So, 5 stars for me. - December 8, 2001 by Er Zatz
