<br>
I'm not sure if what I'm telling you will help... I mean to edit a
playlist that will then play with mplayer (which plays flac files).<br>
<br>
The command is:<br>
$ mplayer -playlist list.m3u<br>
<br>
In case you want to play it choosing songs randomly:<br>
$ mplayer -playlist list.m3u -shuffle<br>
<br>
If you don't want to play it from xterm there are ways to run it from graphical mode. (In N770 there's load-applet-run that does it... in N8XX I think there's a launcher that does the job...)<br>
<br>
Besides, if you don't know how to manually edit a playlist file I can tell you how to do it, or even send you a script to do it.<br></div></div><br>
