As I got no response when I posted this initially, I am trying again.
I am writing on behalf of a friend who is not subscribed to this list. I doubt that this is relevant, however, he uses some version of Winamp for playing his mp3 files. My friend notes that occasionally there will be a change in the names of some mp3 files to dos file conventions, that is, no more than eight characters followed by a period and the mp3 extention. These 8-character names terminate with a tilde followed by a number which is why I characterized it as a dos file naming convention. There doesn't seem to be any consistency to this. He can recall no specific event which seems to precipitate this. So I am wondering whether anyone on this list has experienced this. If so, what is its cause and what is the solution? Thanks in advance.
