How to make playlist using WMP 11

[Lexington58]

I could not find info. to do this any where, so I thought I'd post it.

Programs needed:
Zalternator (can work with 2.5)
WMP11 (ver. I used)
Winamp
Zune SW

1) Load up the Zune sw, wait for zune to sync. Then kill program.
2) Set zalternator to generic wmp. If using Vista turn off UAC.
3) Open Wmp11, and let it sync with the zune.
4) create new playlist, and select edit list (bottom left of screen)
5) From the library (music files on computer) drag songs to list.
6) Save list as .wpl
7) open winamp, and open .wpl. Save it as .m3u
8) close wmp, and set zalternator to zune.
9) in zune sw drag .m3u file on the the collection>playlist window
10) Zune sw auto converts .m3u to .pla
11) drag play list to zune icon at bottom of screen
12) Your done. You've just made a playlist using WMP 11

- Ignore the yellow warning signal in the collection>playlist. This just means that the files don't match up with the zune mp. Great thing is if Zune marketplace doesn't rec. song when making a list, chances are WMP 11 will). When you turn on the zune find the playlist in the normal spot.

If anyone knows of a quicker way to do this please post it. Greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.

Seems like you could skip quite a few steps with my favorite playlist creator, Playlist Creator 3 (available for download here: http://www.oddgravity.de/app-opc.php). It'll let you make one as a m3u right off the bat for importing.

Sweet guide nonetheless

Seems like you can just make play list with zune software. The latest zune software does it pretty well.
