PocketPVS Alternative... thoughts? Improvements?

[JetMan]

After searching through the archives it seemed like there were some people not too happy about the PocketPVS situation...

I thought I'd share what i did:
With Windows Media Player 1) I set Windows media player to read my snapstream folder 2) I set up a few custom "Auto Playlists"... e.g. filter out mp3 and such leaving wmv's, set a bit rate limit, and a rating of 5 stars. 3) Bought WinXP's Plus! Digital Media and used Sync & Go to sync that playlist with the Pocket PC.

So what happens:
SnapStream records a show, it automatically performs the video recompression, windows media player automatically adds the files to the media library as they are created, i simply set the rating of ones I want on my iPAQ to 5 stars and since the "Auto Playlist" is set to sync via the Digital Media tool it takes care of the rest.

Works well... all I need to do is change my ratings on music or video files I want on my device to 5 stars and everything else is automatic.
