small but urgent 2.0 wish - 21/08/2001 10:08
Hi.
This is related to my post and the subsequent thread in the programmer section:
I would really appreciate if emplode would allow the upload of a specific file type (let's say ".addon" files) to the empeg that are automatically stored in a special, FID-only "playlist". That "playlist" should be completely ignored by the player itself, other than during sync/up-/download using emptool/emplode.
Currently, addons would have to be named ".MP3", added to some playlist, uploaded to the empeg, then manually moved away from the .../fids directory...
What I propose is to

What I propose is to
- let emplode upload ".addon" files to a special addon-pseudo-playlist
- let the player ignore this playlist when building its binary music database
- allow custom init/installer scripts to remove those files from that special playlist after installation, without invalidating the music database that was built during sync.
