Exclude folder from database
GodEater:
Not enough that you'll notice it other than it speeds up the database loads.
Although if you're using the database mode - I'm at a loss as to why you've bothered with the two copies of music - it'll quite happily work with the music files iTunes has loaded onto your ipod. You don't need the second copy.

I don't think that is necessary anymore. I renamed all of my music files from "4 letters" to "artist - title" using MediaMonkey and they still playback in the original firmware. However, I left them in the folder they were in (i.e. F01, F02, etc.). I am using a 5G iPod, btw.
GodEater:
Does MediaMonkey have some support for rebuilding the ipod music database as well ?
riffmaker:
I have 80gb 5g iPod so I have no problem with free space as my library is "only" 25gigs big...
I just like my own folder and file name structure...But I dont want to rename all mp3s in iPod libray...What is even good for when I'd had my mp3 in F00-F50 folders?
I just would like to take advantage of my directory structure and ID3tag database....And also left iPod library untouched....

But if you're using the database, then the file structure is irrelevant - you'll never even see it.
I guess I just don't understand what you think you're acheiving doing it this way.
