I've just released another freeware to make life simpler. :grin:


PlaylistMgr

Requirement: gsgetfile.dll (Download directly here)
Update: gsGetFile.dll is now included in the ZIP/CAB files.

PlaylistMgr allows you to load, save, create or edit your playlists. Currently, it is only able to handle ASX files (WMP Playlists). What's different in this playlist editor from other playlist editors is that this one supports unicode. Also, this software is compatible with square screens as well as QVGA landscape modes, but it's not VGA-aware though. So, you can save playlists which have chinese songs in them. You can also use chinese characters to name the playlist file.

These features are not supported:
1) M3U Playlists
2) ID3 Tag

If I figure out how to save unicode M3U playlists, I'll add in M3U support and also allows more audio formats to be added to the playlist.

Here is one more screenshot.



If you are wondering what each icon is used for, here's the help.

If you put in Windows folder, any software which uses gsGetFile.dll can access it. If you put in the same folder as this program, then only this program can access the file. So, the best location is the windows folder.

I just thought of what I can do for the next version. I can add in a dialog to display all the WMP playlists on the device. Then you can select a playlist and choose either to edit it, delete it or play it in WMP. Stay tuned.... :w00t:

Woohoo...thanks! :grin: Something like Playlist Manager for SMP? It was a great freeware but now the author like given up ....wasted

Actually I got the idea while looking at the playlist manager in WMP9 and below. It's a shame WMP10 and above no longer have the user-friendly playlist manager, which is my main motivation for developing this software.

Version 0.2 has been released to include the updates mentioned above.

Version 0.2.1 is not an essential update if you already have v0.2 as the changes are very minor UI enhancements. Here's the new screenshot. If you notice, the icon for "open playlist" has changed, so as not to confuse with the folder icon on the right.
