Greetings,
My music collection is currently at ~50.7GB with ~8692 files. While using both music managers from PN the database is constantly in error. When I add new songs it never picks them all up: sometimes it picks some of them up, sometimes it doesn't notice a new directory was even created within the specified music library tree it's supposed to be cognizant of and doesn't pick any of them up.
I constantly have to delete the dbase files and allow it to re-discover all of the music. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there any way to remedy this situation?
I don't care about any flashy features, I just want something that's reliable. Perhaps Phat4X is the answer (if it's reliable)..

I recently purchased Media Manager and have noticed that the playlists I've created under Music manager aren't reccognized by Media Manager (and visa versa). In fact I wiped DMS clean and strictly used Media Manager to create playlists, and My Phat Noise player gives me an audio prompt ("Empty Disk")
This is after I upgraded my PhatNoise player(VW/Audi version) to the latest firmware.

thats because they write the files in different formats IIRC.. you should use one or the other, not both to copy music.
As for the empty disc, thats an interesting situation.. did it create all the db files and the files under the profile\default folder on phtdta?
I'd guess it didn't really sync the data to the disk for some reason.

With regards the the above problem I was having, I got a reply back from support people at PhatNoise. If you have an older PhatBox unit, you need to instruct Media Manager to write old style Database files during save/eject process.

Once I did this I had no problem creating playlists using Media Manager.
