Great job on the update! Seems pretty slick. :thumbup:

But I can't seem to set it to my own folder of playlists anymore. The PathToStations= variable has been taken out. I don't know if you can re-read the folder and propogate the filenames to the StationsDir.txt or something?

So for now I'll just use the older version with FileList. It seems to work fine for me anyway...

Thanks!

It was a quick re-code... This version cannot navigate folders like the previous one.
It is hard coded to look at the @Resources\Playlists folder; (I will remove that option from the config :oops: ).
The file that is parsed is a plain text file located at "@Resources\StationDir.txt", it contains a sorted directory list of the Playlist folder.

Sorry for any confusion; it looks similar, but works quite differently!

EDIT:
You could possibly make it look at a different folder, but you would need to change the URL in RegExp, change the launch meters, etc., etc. (it could be done, but not without some work... go for it, if you want!).

Read the How to use I-Radio.txt file if you are considering changes to the PlayLists folder; there are several steps needed if you add or remove files. :)

I figured it out it wasn't too hard.

I didn't realize you included the update tool. :?

I just edited the update.bat file, ran it, and changed the number of #Get#s and it worked!!
The instructions in the "How to use I-Radio.txt" file made it simple.

Thank you! :great:

EDIT: Also had to change the playlist path in the [mFileCount] and FileNameX meters.

EDIT2: Then I had a problem with it not showing the last few files. So I fixed it by changing RegExpFilter=.m3u to RegExpFilter=.* in the [mFileCount] meter, since I have some .pls and .asx files as well.

Yeah...
I have been looking it over also, made all of those corrections you mentioned (thanks!) AND
added a semi-automatic UPDATE STATIONS with double-middle-click of the playlist window of the skin (the instructions were vague and have been corrected; the list will update now if you follow the help in the 'How to...' file). First post was updated to corrected version 2.1a

I am glad you were able to correct it.

Thanks for the feedback... Enjoy the music! :thumbup:
