I have bought my son a USB based flash card MP3 player. This device appears to Windows as a removable drive and you can drag/drop folders or files to it. MediaCenter sees it at Drives and Devices as drive G and as a Handheld Player.
No problem transferring files to it using Windows Explorer, just right click copy the folder and paste it onto Drive G: and the USB MP3 player retains the folder structure so when navigating you see Aerosmith then Rocks, Get your Wings etc. This makes selecting the audio you want to hear on the handheld easy. When using MC you drag and drop the files to the device but there is no file structure brought to the device so they all appear in the root of the device as indivdual tracks. Not real convienient but it works.
Now the problem is I don't want him messing with my file structure in Explorer. Would you trust a 12 year old in a hurry with your library?
Is there a way to somehow get the files onto the device with the folder structure using MC? Synch it or something?
Any help would be appreciated.
