Deleting Files/Songs from the Zune itself??

darkmantis · 11-04-2007, 07:55 PM

This is an option that I sorely missed that my ZenTouch had on it. I listen to a lot of talk shows while I'm at work and sometimes, I will forget my place on my player so using my Zen, after I finished listening to the show, let's say,

"talkshow1_mp3" , I would delete the file perm. from the player so all that would show is

"talkshow2_mp3"
"talkshow3_mp3" etc.

I could come home and open up my import program and add more files.

The big problem I hate with ipods and Zune sync programs is that it always auto-syncs, or if you turn off the auto-sync, I would like it to only selectively sync or ADD the files I like.

For instance, now, Syn is turned off, I delete talkshow 1 from my player, and add more. it will add talkshow 1 again even though I don't select it, but because it grabs everything in that directory , unless of course, I delete it first.

If, at all possible, I would love to have a hack/mod that gives me a selective sync (add my songs 1 time and it doesn't constantly check those files and removes or adds the missing ones) and be able to delete them from my player.

Anyone think this is possible?

thanks!

You could create a smart playlist and then sync that.

Here's a bit of info on it: http://selfhack.com/2006/11/12/how-t...for-your-zune/

Or just manually sync/delete.
