Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2002 13:04:03 -0400 (EDT) Thanks for the background, and sorry to have missed the original thread in the archive. Hm. Thinking... I've been fooling around with a way of thinking about playlists: filesystem info is an evil metadata format. Instead, I navigate completely based on ID3 info, using a console utility to generate playlists on the fly from tag info. The easiest fix for my needs is really to do a random segmentation of mp3s into 400-entry directories, with filenames munged down to a minimum length. The only catch WRT rockbox would be a need to look at files via tags instead of filenames. If I left it all in one directory the way it is now: 16K buffer/ 2000 mp3s == 8 total chars per filename. 8 total - strlen(".mp3") == 4 chars. ouch! thanks. - Lucas Received on 2002-08-22 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
