thanks for the repies, only the 40% of mp3s in the HD were encoded by me and properly tagged so the "rude" fids retrieving doesn't seems useful for me (it's a 60gb hd with 40mb free). if there isn't nothing like it yet, i'll start coding a parser (in python i think or bash scripting) to read the *1 ascii file and give the right name to the *0 file. i'm not a skilled programmer but i'll also try to code something to search and play a *0 file from the informations of the *1 ones (and do a database of it ?) . please let me know if there is something like this just developed or in developement, i've not found nothing about it.
cheers
Patrizio.
