itunes and/or WMP
Posted by Wilfried on October 31st, 2005


Hello,
I'm using itunes to play my mp3 collection (over 18000).
Itunes has a great playlist-editor/maker. I was wondering if there is a
way
to convert an itunes-playlist to use with WMP, since it looks better on
TV-screen (in MCE).

OK, sure I can write a processor for that. If I put it up on my website
tomorrow, will you be able to test it for me ?

You realise though that the iTunes media will have to be filtered to MP3
only - WMP doesn't play AAC or M4A files ?
So the playlist processor will remove any files from the playlist that end
in .m4a, OK ?

The processor will sit on my web server, so you'd have to be connected to
the internet to use it : Upload the playlist and you'd get back a file
containing a filtered WMP playlist of MP3s. You'd store the WMP playlist
somewhere convenient.

Cheers - Neil

There ist already a Tool that syncs iTunes with WMP/MCE.
It's called MusicBridge and can be found here:

It syncs your iTunes Media Informations, Playlists, CoverArt and Ratings. It
also has a commandline interface so you can create cron jobs. Works great.
