Importing smart views from winamp?
« on: July 26, 2025, 07:59:17 PM »
Hi - I'm trying to migrate from Winamp and can't seem to get my smart views recognized.

First off  Kudos for all the work on Wacup, this definitely looks like the perfect replacement for Winamp.

How do I add my existing smart views from Winamp (v5.666) to Wacup (x86 version)? I tried the import library function which worked to bring the track database and playlists but not smart views.  I tried copying my smart views into what looks like the appropriate folder - AppData\Roaming\WACUP\Plugins\ml\views\ but the copied views don't show up in the smart view list in Wacup?

It also needs entries from gen_ml.ini as that stores the order / mappings of the views to the vmd files. You could either copy the whole file over or manually add in the existing items but I don't currently have anything in place that'll do an import from a prior wacup / winamp install when it comes to smart views (just the db contents).

Ah thanks, copying gen_ml.ini over from the Winamp folder worked for me!
