Upon running m3u now for the first time it should give you a warning message about the setting file, don't worry this is normal, just fill in the two boxes and press OK.

This program requires Winamp, the commonly used MP3 player, if you don't have Winamp then a copy can be downloaded free of charge at:

www.Winamp.com

If you do not know the exact location of Winamp on your computer then click on the search tag and select a drive to look in. If you have Winamp in that drive the program will find it.

Default MP3 directory is the root directory of your MP3 files, if like me you have a large amount of MP3 one drive, select the drive as the default MP3 directory. For example "C:\MY_MP3_SONGS". Please enter a path here even if you do not have a default place for your MP3s ("C:\" for example).
