Re: m3u & @ Ben (I'm getting mail via digest and am not sure how to reply to
just the specific message about m3u.)
I am not aware of any m3u options. I have made some requests on the wiki for
m3u certain functionality. http://gpodderwiki.jottit.com/todo
I have a couple smalltalk scripts that I made to make a m3u for each folder
uploaded to my Archos player. I end up with a play list that contains all
the episodes in that folder. I also have a script that scans my sync folder
on my player and makes a playlist of all the podcasts synced today. My
player won't do mp4s in m3us, so the second script also makes a folder in my
Video directory of any video podcasts with todays date.
The Visual Works smalltalk developer environment is available for most OSs
and I would be happy to send you the code I have and try and help you adjust
it for your player. I'm no programmer and the code kludgey at best. Another
language might be easier to work with for you, but that is what I'm trying
to learn now and the best I have to offer.
