Hey all. I'm using the standard Media Player on my 8320, and when you access that there are five "sections" - Music, Videos, Ring Tones, Pictures and Voice Notes (anybody use this?). I tried to add a sixth folder this morning using both mass storage mode (which I never thought would work) and then using the DM bundled Roxio Media Manager. In both cases I added a folder called "Podcasts" (which contains a 54mb podcast), but when I disconnected the Blackberry and accesed the Media Player, the folder wasn't there. So I re-connected to Media Manager and moved the folder into the "Music" folder. Still no show for the "Podcasts" folder, BUT I can find the Podcast that I'd put in the folder amongst the music files both by name and genre. So it seems that the BB disregards any folders that I make and just uses the media in them. Howevere, although not essential it would be great to just have a seperate visible and accessible folder for podcasts, but can it be done?

Thanks in advance,

I don't think you can. I asked the same question and have tried this myself.

I'll bet you have been using creative labs mp3 plalyers. They allow this and I can't believe others don't.

Good eductaed guess that STB, I use a Creative Zen Vision M - I love Creative and it makes me feel good that I'm kicking against the ubiquitous iPods.

Oh, and in your thread that you linked too, Rasp is right that if the Podcast is correctly tagged it's easy to find them via "genre".

Yea, I have been using the Creative Labs Muvo for several years. It's built like a tank, lasts 20 hours on one AAA battery, and is fairly small.

I have tried to dethrown it several times with other low-end non-ipod players. But since I have had my Blackberry, my Muvo has been reliquished to my dresser drawer.

If the Blackberry would work better with folders and had a bookmark feature, it would be perfect for my useage.
