| − | Well, for the plugins all you gotta do is to have the cue and the mp3 file in the same folder -
| |
| − | * for most players just drag the cue sheet inside the main or playlist window, and it works just fine
| |
| − | * for the '''mp3cue''' plugin it's different - here u drag the mp3 file inside the Winamp windows and the cue will open in a separate window
| |
| − | | |
| − | All plugins will show up the track name, and at the end of each track it will keep on playing without any gaps at the end of song, coz it will keep on going smoothly throughout the whole mix, coz you gotta remember its playing one mp3.
