Hey Popup Community,

I downloaded all the the lessons, PDFs, and Dialogues through my personal feed.

Unfortunately, a podcast can't loop on the iPhone's settings, and I often like to play all the dialogues together, often in a loop, when I am commuting. To solve this, I decided to take all the dialogues fo the lessons that I have studied, and put them into a play list.

Now, that play list won't show up when I click on the iPhone in iTunes inorder to sync it. I am assuming that it is because it came from the iTunes feed. I tried 'laundering' the .mp3s by taking them out of iTunes, into a folder on my desktop, then reimporting them into the play list, and that didn't help...

any other suggestions?

No one knows how to get the dialogues from the RSS feed into a playlist?

If you have typical *nix tools (i.e. you run Linux, Mac, or installed Cygwin on Windows) and assuming your dialogue files look like "popupchinese-elementary-your-phone-service-is-terminated-dialogue.mp3" (like they do on my system) and they are located in directory PopupChineseDirectory then you can make a playlist of all your downloaded dialogues with the following line of shell code:

ls PopupChineseDirectory | grep "gue.mp3$" > dialogue.m3u

Alternatively you can just open a text editor and manually add the files you want in a playlist, one per line, to a text file saving it with extension "m3u" to manually create a playlist.
