Homebrew Getting Playlists to work in LMP-ng MP3 player(Ipod clone DS)

[Guitar1969]

Hello:
I am trying to get m3u playlists to work in IMP-ng as it says it support them, but can 't get it to work. i downloaded a standalone playlist maker, added the mp3s from my flash(Poinint in the right place) and then copied it onto my flash. When in LMP-ng 1.02, I can see the playlist under the proper menu, but when I click on it, it shows gibberish, and freezes my DS. I have scoured the internet looking for playlist info, but there is very little about it for the LMP-ng. Is anybody successfully using playlists, and if so, what editor are you using, what settings , and where are you putting the playlist on your DS.

Thanks,

Michael

I don't think they have fixed that issue yet.

Can you play mp4 videos on the said ipod on the ds.

No. AFAIK the only videos you can play on the DS are .dpg's and specially encoded .avi files

DSOrganize will recognize and play playlists(.m3u, and .pls)

I don't have it on my flashcard any more meaning I'm working from memory here, but I can confirm playlists do work.

I used to make a folder of tracks I wanted to turn into a playlist and then run the following batch script:

@echo off
dir /o:n /b *.mp3 > Playlist.m3u

That would in turn produce a simple playlist in the following format -

trackname1.mp3
trackname2.mp3
trackname3.mp3

Then I would simply leave the playlist in the same folder as the relevant tracks and everything ran fine.

I wish it would find the embedded artwork within the MP3.
