Hello @StarlendS and welcome to ElevenForum. :-)


If you are using WMP to play music... I would switch to Foobar2000.
It's free, and much better.

foobar2000

foobar2000
www.foobar2000.org www.foobar2000.org

I use Foobar2000 for music, and VLC Media Player for video.
This is how I have Foobar2000 set up... the window on the right is a plugin.

Unlike WMP, with Foobar2000, it is "easy" to make a playlist. Just click on File > ... :cool:

You can easily change how Foobar2000, looks...

Merhaba @StarlendS ve ElevenForum'a hoş geldiniz. :-)


Eğer müzik çalmak için WMP kullanıyorsanız... Foobar2000'e geçmenizi öneririm.
Ücretsiz ve çok daha iyi.

foobar2000

foobar2000
www.foobar2000.org www.foobar2000.org

Müzik için Foobar2000'i, video için ise VLC Media Player'ı kullanıyorum.
Foobar2000'i bu şekilde ayarladım... sağdaki pencere bir eklenti.

WMP'nin aksine, Foobar2000 ile bir çalma listesi oluşturmak "kolaydır". Sadece Dosya > ...'a tıklayın. :Serin:

Foobar2000'in görünümünü kolayca değiştirebilirsiniz...

Can you explain a little bit more what this file is?
Click to expand...
It's a Playlist file, basically a 'pointer' file that tells the player where to look for the media and play it.

Windows makes them for you.
Make up a Playlist in Media Player and Save it...

The Playlist will be in your Music/Playlists folder...
