The readme file isn't clear (at least to me) that this is about building on the fly playlists with just the mp3 player. The way I read it this is about building playlists without using WMP on your computer and then transferring them to the player...am I missing something?

You just need to create a playlist in Windows Media Player and then drag that whole playlist over to synch it up.

The inability to be able to build playlists on the fly is the one negative of this otherwise great player. There are times where I just want to build a playlist for one time playback suiting the mood I am in and unfortunately the software of this player doesn't allow it. As I understand it earlier versions had this function and I emailed Sony asking if this would be corrected in future software updates and received no reply to my direct question.

Patricia, Not sure as I only use this for downloading overdrive audiobooks from my library and they automatically get placed either in nonfiction or fiction under the genre button or in unkown. I have not created my own playlist for this. I know there is a section that stores all your songs as I have seen it on my walkman. I would suggest going somewhere that you can check this out and play with all the features for a bit in a store first such as Best where they have display units out if you can. I know Best Buy displays these sony walkman's out on dispaly. For more info check out the reviews for this on Amazon.com and Best Buy.com and you may find what you are looking for. Hope this helps.

Hi Phil It works with wmp, but not with iTunes in the same way. You could make and name a folder on the desktop, then drag a playlist into the folder then copy it to the Cowon, but dropping it into the cowon's music folder. Incidently the Cowon recognises 64gig SD cards and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't recognise the new 128gb micro sd cards

Yes, the playlists would appear temporarily, but the next time I turned my SansaView on, the playlists would be empty. I tried all the help advice, talked to someone on the phone (what they suggested worked for a few minutes), and finally decided to do an online chat. Ultimately, she told me that they were aware of the problem and were working on it. I have checked daily for upgrades, but none has appeared as of yet. The only other problem I have noticed is an occasional song that is cut off.

Yes, but indirectly. I down loaded a free audio converter ( http://www.freemake.com/free_audio_converter/ ). I tunes uses MP4 format. Aerb uses MP3 and WMA formats. What I had to do was search my computer for the actual music files- NOT itunes library. How I did this was to go to my computer and search for "music" the actual music files showed up as one of the options. Freemake.com I liked this audio converter because once I found the files on my computer I was able to copy and paste the files into the program. Once the files were pasted I clicked "to MP3" on the bottom left of the screen. The program created a file and automatically saved the converted music into the file. Once the files were in MP3 format, I copy and pasted the music file onto the Aerb and started listening! This player does not offer a shuffle mode, but if you go into the music file and randomly add a number to the front of the name of the song (i.e.- 1 Sweet Home Alabama)the player will play the songs in the numerical order. I have 140+ songs on so far and just change numbers from time to help keep my swim interesting. Hope this helps!

While researching this I found this pdf http://www.wolverinedata.com/downloads/Wolverine_ESP_playlist_Creation.pdf. Also in the user manual it states that you can build a playlist in WMP or winamp like apps and push them to the ESP. The only gotcha I could see is that if you wanted to use WMP to push A/V and playlists it looked like you had to make a setting change on the ESP. Nothing major, just worth noting.

The "Shuffle" option plays the exact same playlist each time the Soundfly is powered on. Mine begins with 1638, 1759, 1829, 0603, 0528, 1537, 1534, etc. Is there any way to change this order? It's sad to have over 2000 songs on a 16GB SD card and hear the same songs over and over (and over, and over).I can't believe a product that is excellent in so many ways could be lacking a way to randomize songs. I wouldn't like this with audio books, but for music I would think it's preferred. Thanks!

What that means is you can't create a new playlist on the device itself (aside from Genius lists). It would just be stupid and pointless for the device not to support playlists at all.

Install Windows Media Player 11. I have this installed in my PC, and it works great.

you can not create a playlist that you can save as a specific file name of your choice. there is a favorites list you can add songs and remove. Hope future firmware upgrade will add more playing options.

I am happy with the M260. I use mine for audio books from Audible.com and also for music. I do have 1 concern. I have 3 CD's that I put together myself with Windows Media Player and transfered to the M260. These 3 do not show up when I use windows explorer or windows media player. They only show up on the M260. What gives?

I downloaded the Amazon Music player (I have it on my PC also), my music library and playlists were there. Plays great on my Trio which I am very much in love with. It is blue tooth connected to a small speaker I keep in my car. No more cd burning or cds that skip, etc. I am searching for an app that will play my music without an internet connection.

Hi Mely_May, I recently purchased the 32GB Ipod Touch 5th Generation, Wow What a machine, Yes you can create Playlists with the device or on your computer and just drag then to your device I recommend doing it this way so you have the playlist available for your computer and your Ipod, I would also suggest the 32gb version if you plan to watch movies, or Tv shows since they can be stored on the device.Hope this Helps.Brian

If you want to put together a playlist, what I do is a look in the device itself for each song I want to add to the playlist and then I press the bottom part of the control pad and then press the second option option there: "Add to playlist," and then press the center pad and that's it. Not difficult at all! I couldn't find a way to do it in the computer and then transfer it to the mp3. Good luck!

Hi Mo, this Sony NWZE473 do have a Playlist feature. Creating such playlist can be done using the supplied software Media Go. -Ely

While I have not used this feature, I think that you can make your own playlists. You would use iTunes to create the playlists I believe. But, my adult children have many playlists so it must be possible.
