Playlists don't take up that much space, so wouldn't it be easy to make two folders - one with playlists and their corresponding .cfg files in shuffle mode, and one without, for example? Either way you have to have two .cfg files. You could make one folder with "Car" settings as well, one with "Home" settings, etc., to allow you to tweak the sound for that environment. As it currently stands, if you had a single .cfg file in a folder of playlists, that configuration file would be used for all playlists executed from that folder, right? So you'd only need to have one copy of a .cfg file for that particular "environment". One other question - can you make playlists of .m3u files as well, to avoid duplicating all the songs in a playlist for each folder - sort of a pointer to a pointer approach? Then you could put the playlists in one folder, and just reference that playlist from the "home", "car", "shuffle", or "no-shuffle" folder to get the desired settings. I suppose I should just try it and see if it works, but if someone already knows...
