Thanks for the tips. I'll try loosing the screw a little bit to see if helps with the button sticking. It's an extremely annoying problem.

I think I will go ahead and drag my hdd directory structure to the playlist directory. I am pretty disappointed with the file upload speed. It's not much faster (if that) than copy files onto my Archos Jukebox (via USB). I was really looking forward to uploading my 20GB collection in a reasonable amount of time. Looks like I might have to batch it.

I read the FAQ and the author says not to upload files using the beta software. I've already updated my player to 2.0beta7. Should/can I downgrade the player firmware/flash (or whatever it's called) to the non-beta version before uploading all my files?
