Playlist Editor.
Create, edit, and delete playlists from an application on the zune.
I know reading from the hard drive is possible, but what about writing? that would be essential for this program.
Basic keys, (how i think it should be mapped.)
To move song up and down in the playlist:
middle click on the song, up and down to move.
Left and right, change play list,
Play/pause play/pause the song.
pressing back, main app menu
holding back for 3 seconds, exit application.
Where this idea came from:
I keep ALL my music on my zune, and not on my PC. (hard drive space shortage) which makes it impossible to create new play lists.
with this program, you could make play lists on the go, making it a must have application.

This is, as far as I know, impossible to do.
Yes you can write to the HD, but in a special folder restricting games from accessing the content of the zune and you can only *read* data from existing playlists on the zune.

well you wouldn't technically be writing to the firmware. Playlists are in no way part of the firmware, but khao is right. Games are limited to their own folders. You might be able to save a playlists in there that another game could use, but that is it.
How are you able to rename playlists? Using this code I get an error (that I expected) that the Name property is read-only:
Playlist pl = new MediaLibrary().Playlists[0];
pl.Name = "Something else";
Though even if you renamed the object in your game, it still won't write that data back to the actual playlist on the hard drive so it doesn't matter. You cannot make a playlist editor using XNA GS 3.0. Maybe they'll add functionality later, but at this time it simply does not exist.
how would you know what he meant your not soccerfreak, and still, there is a way to write to the hard drive, just not outside of the specified folder for games. I still think it might be possible to make a game that allows you to creat playlists for other games.

i thought maybe he just read my post wrong.
back to what you said though.
would it be possible to create a playlist via a game, then move it from the game folder to the playlist folder by pc using the hdd hack?
