frustrated podcaster - 31 Oct 2006 18:04 GMT
I have a sandisk mp3 player and I am an avid podcaster especially microsoft
channel 9. I would like to set up my auto-synch to remove the podcasts I have
listened to on the player and add the new ones I have downloaded.

It sounds like a simple thing but I have not figured out how to do it. I
tried rating the songs on my player and set up a sync list that would take an
unrated file but not a rated one,  but mediaplayer 10 just resets the file to
be unrated in the player.

Any help would be appreciated

It could be that WMP is the wrong tool for the job. You might also
want to try SyncToy to manage the sync behaviour of recently added
files (i.e. newly downloaded vs expired, old files) :

That might not be the right tool either, but as WMP10 doesn't really
"do" podcasts, it's worth a look as an alternative approach.
