If you posted earlier in digital-car I've answered your question there

In case it wasn't you

I'm guessing you havent yet configued Mediacar.

Go to Start>Coyote Mediacar>MediacarSetup

then set a playlist path.

Should work from there. Good luck

it was me

i hadent looked back at the forum

ive tried the playlist path it shows my mp3s but wont play them

hmmm, so you can see the mp3's in your playlist?

When you hit play can you see the elapsed time counting up?

If you can, it could be a volume issue (wav/lineout may be muted)

Mediacar is based on winamp - do you have a working copy of winamp you can test with?

Have you checked the eq settings in mediacar?

.. and does the time count up when playing a song?
