Copy playlists from Winamp to Windows Media Player

Question

I have several large playlists on Winamp that I would like to transfer over to Windows Media Player.

Is it do able? Where are playlists stored? Do I have to convert them?

Solution

Winamp saves playlists in the .m3u format. Here's more info on M3U files. Your version of WMP should already be able to support this; there's no need to convert your playlists.

You can manually save a copy of your playlist in Winamp by pressing Ctrl + S.

Afterwards, you can just open the file in (or drag it into) Windows Media Player to play it.

I was looking for something a little more seamless/automated, but this will work for now. Thanks.
