i am using tc from my pocket pc and it works great at accessing files on the network which the windows file explorer is useless for. one use i would like is to play an album of music stored on my hard drive on the pocket pc. i can use tc/ce to play an individual mp3 file but not the whole album, is there a way of doing this? (the windows solution is a joke of setting the main computer to broadcast an audio stream and then another program on the pocket pc to remotely control windows media player). i am not trained in the mystical black arts of computer programming so an idiots guide would be appreciated.
thanks

Try to create a text file which contains all the names separated by ENTER, and name it somename.m3u. This is an mp3 playlist, and most mp3 players should be able to play it.

You can open multiple files by selecting them, then olding down the pen until the menu opens. Then choose "Open". However, this doesn't seem to work with Windows Media Player on WM5 (but also not in Explorer).
