Not to answer my own threads or anything...
But I *think* I've gotten things to work now, and I've written a lil' tutorial describing what I did to get where I am now... Off to test it in the car - Wish me luck!
1) Make sure you begin running v2.00 Final W/ Latest Hijack Installed
2) Apply v3.00 Alpha 3 Upgrade File
3) Using Logo Editor, Install Latest Hijack
4) Preform manual sync (use supplied .jar file availible @
http://www.inzyme.com/rio/empeg/, place in C:\Program Files\jEmplode\lib\) using command line (It may take a while, make sure your in jEmplodes directory):
C:\Program Files\jEmplode>java -classpath lib\jemplode.jar org.jempeg.empeg.protocol.RebuildDatabase <EMPEG IP ADDRESS>
5) Fire up the v2.10 Version of emplode (Availible here,
http://www.empeg.com/v3alpha/ ), and sync up (Checking the media may take a LONG, LONG time with alot of songs).
6) Sync one more time (You have to sync twice).
7) Database should be adjusted to v3.00 Alpha 3 format! Enjoy!
8) You can NOW upgrade to v3.00 Alpha 5 if you like, but you CANNOT rebuild the database (add/remove tunes) with this version. You MUST downgrade to v3.00 Alpha 3 if you want to do that - I haven't wanted to mess with that
