With GoldenEar's FTP server it depends on your FTP client software. FTP protocol itself is one file at a time (like all protocols really), but FileZilla (on Windows) allows you to set up a queue of hundreds of files to transfer, which can be added by saying you want everything below a certain directory transferred, and then start the queue and off FileZilla goes transferring hundreds or thousands of files one after another. I've given it stuff to do that has taken several hours, gigabytes take a while to move after all. What I haven't found is a way to do a sync, ie. only move across stuff that's new or modified. But that only requires an FTP client that can do it, no extra support would be needed in GoldenEar. GoldenEar runs a queue of stuff to play. You can certainly add an entire directory, which would be an album. And add multiple directories to get a lengthy queue. I don't know if you can save the queue as a playlist, I'm not really a playlist person. GoldenEar works with files and directories, and shows filenames. You navigate the file and direcory tree. It does not work with tags, though it will display embedded FLAC artwork while playing. Personally it suits me fine, I'm much more into files and directories and it is a constant source of irritation to me that LMS would rather I did it all with tags. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Owen Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42371 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
