[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 953332, member: 59143"] Just an update: I want to thank Dysfunction a LOT. I got the script which Doug wrote for folder actions and adding songs to iTunes, to work. Right on man.. iTunes is really a battle though, and wish it wasn't so. But after everything has been said and done, I've finally got it to about 99% fully functional. Had to: 1. Install Xiph plug in globally in order to import and playback Ogg files. 2. Use FLUKE in order to import and playback FLAC's (still doesn't work well with tags though) (the actual import process was painful, too.) 3. Add Mirror script which mirrors the file name from the original file. 4. Manually add some numbers in front of album names so albums are in order Sounds like less of a hassle than it actually is. It's annoying as h3ll. And it's still not totally perfect, but a lot more acceptable. I just can't wait for the day when Songbird isn't such a memory hog, and doesn't skip during playback from an external HD. Because that will be the day I say adios to iTunes. Doug [/QUOTE]
