Playlists for Linux users?

[HankB]

Hi all,
I can't seem to be able to create a playlist that works. I've found an awk and perl script that purport to do this, but no joy. I wrote a little C program that converts an m3u playlist to one identical with the Go list on the Sansa and it does not work. (That's byte for byte identical - same MD5 hash.) It just doesn't show up in the list.

I'd like to find a solution for this and a bit more than just a program with no usage hints.

If I get my program working, I'd be glad to share it, but that seems kind of pointless at the moment.

The version of S/W on my e280 is 01.02.07A. I think that 01.02.15A is current. Will a newer version make a difference with this?

thanks,
hank
