Absolutely. Winamp supports a feature called “Watch Folders”. Using this feature, you can specify folders you wish Winamp to scan for new media. To access this feature, open the Winamp Preferences (CTRL+P) and select the “Watch Folders” tab within the “Local Media” view under the “Media Library” section. You may configure Winamp to periodically rescan these folders and automatically add any new media found to your Media Library. By default, auto rescanning is disabled. You may initiate a rescan of your folders by selecting the “Rescan Watch Folders” item within in the “Library” button menu located on the bottom left hand corner of your Media Library.
