Emptool on Win32/FreeBSD - 29/05/2002 10:22

Ok, I searched the forum and net and haven't come up with any recent answers to the question. Is it possible to compile/download a binary of emptool for Win32 or at a minium BSD? I tried compiling on BSD and had no luck :/

Nobody ever got emptool on FreeBSD working AFAIK, but jemplode works quite well on it (and W32 as well or so I hear). Is there a reason you need to use emptool?

I'm looking to script or some how programmaticly upload mp3s and generate playlists. I haven't had a change to delve into jemplode fully yet, does it have this ability or is it just a GUI?

Are you aware that Emplode will automatically generate playlists based on folder structure? As shown here, it will create playlists based on the folder names. So if you want to make a heirarchical tree of playlists, just arrange the folders that way on the PC.

By default it is a GUI, basically a clone of Emplode, but there is a lesser know emptool clone in there as well. Try...

java -cp jemplode20.jar org.jempeg.empeg.emptool.Main

I haven't really used it since mschrag first wrote it, but it used to work just like emptool so any scripts that work with emptool could probably be tweaked to work with it as well.
