Why Creative's GUI stomps all over Rockbox
GodEater:
Does Rockbox parse .m3u's with all the #EXTINF stuff in? I didn't think it did...
Llorean:
I'm almost positive lines beginning with # are treated as comments and ignored.

If you look, an M3U is JUST a list of filenames with paths. Rockbox will ignore the M:\, but it will NOT search the whole hard disk to find them, it can't. The processors are slow and it would take time. If the whole rest of the folder names aren't exactly the same, it won't work.
You should either create the M3U based on the real files, on the player, or you should make sure the directory structure on the player is identical to the one on the PC.

ok I ll check that out. I dont think the paths are the same so that could be the thing. But the thing about it is, let's say I import the files directly from my iPod into say, f00bar and then...*while in foobar*.... arrange them in the order I want them to play in the playlist, then I save it in a new folder in rockbock, will rockbox then play the files in that same order I saved them in while they were in foobar? Or will they play them by alphabetical/numerical/whatever order?
Llorean:
If you save an M3U in foobar using the songs on your iPod, yes, they'll play in that order when you launch the .M3U in Rockbox.

So, basically, the Creative GUI "craps all over" Rockbox because the user has to read the Rockbox manual to find out what features it has?
