Thrupp v2.2 released
I've just posted an update to Thrupp - Utsire's MP3 player file management utility thingy - that adds a couple of small but very useful features.
The first is file sorting. Lots and lots of low-end MP3 players don't bother doing any file sorting themselves - they just play songs in the order they discover them on the disk, which is useless if you want to hear albums in order, for example. Thrupp can now optionally try to sort the files as they appear on the disk whenever you eject your player. It isn't perfect, but it's close enough.
The second is better support for iTunes podcasts. Podcasts now have their own folder on your drive. Within the Thrupp window, you'll see each podcast appear as a single group, with the episodes sorted by date, and the dates appearing alongside each episode. New episodes will automatically be copied.
You can get it from the Thrupp page.

Hello GrahamThank you very much for Thrupp. I'm testing it right now to see if it can do what I need.
One question I have that I did not find out in your FAQ:
I need Thrupp to convert AAC to MP3 to a USB-stick for my car. But I also have lots of MP3 files in my playlists in iTunes already and I do not need them to be converted do MP3 again (with another bitrate). I just want these files to be copied. Is that possible? That would speed up the whole process.
Thank you for your hint.
Best regards, Nicolas
