Overview

CE Playlist Help

CEPlaylist is an application that is designed to help manage song files and playlists on a PocketPC device. It is capable of scanning all available storage on the PocketPC as well as any network drives through a wired or wireless network connection. When CEPlaylist first starts, it searches for Playlist and Song files based on the settings in Preferences. After finding all the playlist and song files, it analyzes all MP3, OGG and WMA files and formats the following displays selected by the tabs at the bottom of the window:

Song Library Tab

Provides a hierarchical view of all the song files (.mp3, .ogg and *.wma) with the ability to arrange them in many different formats: - Genre / Artist / Album - Genre / Album / Artist - Artist / Album - Album / Artist - Album Title Only - Artist Only - Directory / Filename This view allows songs to be selected individually, or by genre, artist and album. Once selected, they can be played directly by Windows Media Player, PocketMVP, withMP3, WinamPAQ, GSPlayer, or other PocketPC player - or their contents can be saved to the Song List. Song Tags (artist, album, name, track, genre) can also be edited. More Info.....

Playlists can be played directly byWindows Media Player, PocketMPV, withMP3, WinamPAQ, GSPlayer, or other PocketPC player - or their contents can be saved to the Song List . Their contents can be viewed, and they can be renamed and deleted. Playlists can also be created on a PC using Windows Media Player, Music Match, or WinAmp and copied to the PocketPC. CEPlaylist will automatically adjust the path names to the location of the song files on the PocketPC. More Info.....
