Windows Media Player has a really nifty feature which can grab any amount of music (like 1 gigs worth, or 1 cd worth, etc) and generate a random play list which can then be sent to a portable media player. Unfortunately it also puts them on the media player the same way the music is stored on the hard drive. I have my library set up as d:\music\wma\artist\album1\song1, song2... So, my media player ends up with root\music\artist1\album1\song1, artist15\album3\song7,etc which is extremely cumbersome. I have been able to get WMP to just load the songs into the root of the PMP (song1, song2, song3, etc..., but there is a restriction on the number of entries which can exist in the root folder.
Is there anyway to get winamp to generate this same sort of random sized play list? Yes I can drag n' drop individual songs, but that takes a long time! I just want to end up with a randomize list of songs which fits my PMP capacity with no folder structure.
I have perused the winamp plugin section, but there was nothing like this available.
Thanks.
