backup of files and file hierarchy. - 17/03/2003 14:25

Is there any.. or how hard would it be...
to have a backup utility that would be able to "backup" or copy all of my files from my empeg to a hard drive in the same hierarchy they have on the drive. I created my empeg playlists via a genre-->artist->album directory structure which has since been lost. I want to download the hierarchy back to my HD..playlists as directories and such. iI haven't found a way to do this with emptool or the empeg software and thought surely someone else may have done this or thought of it.

Jemplode will allow you to download all of your playlists to your HD.

does that mean that it includes all files ? i want to get a directory stucture containing the files in the same structure as they are in playlists.

Yes, if you set up the options correctly in Jemplode.

Tony, i think that the Jemplode option should be up in the FAQ as the easiest way... i didn't even see it even mantioned.
