In any case, you can make as many subfolders as you want. I just mirror all of my music files between my PC and my recorder 20. I sort by genre/artist album - you may do it however you prefer. > Does the Rockboxx software allow me to search for loaded mp3s by genre > or artists from the info in the ID3 v1 or v2 tags? The firmware does not do this in itself, but if you download the id3browse program: http://shanebrinkmandavis.com/homepage/ID3Browse/index.html you can create an ID3 tag-based system that does just that. Browse by artist, album, year, genre, etc. Check out http://rockbox.haxx.se/docs/tools.html for links to many other useful tools. > While I am waiting for the delivery, I plan to reorganize my music > collection based on what the limitations of the software will be. Oooh - limitations. Don't say that in the same sentence with rockbox, please. =) The hardware is the only limitation. (That'd be a good motto for rockbox, ya know?) _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-03-06 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
