I've being downloading all the available episodes to my computer. Today I copied them to my mp3 player, but the problem is that the player seems to be sorting them in some weird order of its own. I tried rearranging the files in the folder by type/name etc, but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
If this has been discussed before, I'd really appreciate a link to the thread. Thank you!

I had the same problem with my mp3 player mixing up book files - then i finally found where it says in the manual that files may not appear on the mp3 player in the same order they appear on your computer screen! So it is tough. I dont know whether it is common to all mp3 players - useless if you didnt want it for music though.

VW, in the computer, try renaming them from "whatever.mp3" to "000_whatever.mp3", "001_whatever.mp3" etc. - it's a pain, but that'll usually fix it. You also need to "Sort by Name" on the PC and then copy them over /after/ you've renamed them, as some MP3 players play them in the order they're on the disc irrespective of the name.

ladyspanielears, I listen to audio books as well. The way I do it is, I put each CD into a different folder. So Wuthering Heights -1, Wuthering Heights -2, etc, instead of a general WH folder. Then every folder has correctly numbered tracks from 1 to 20 or whatever and the mp3 player manages to get the order right.
