Well.. thanks for your reply.

Ah-ahh, interesting weight option.. but not that handy when adding more than
200 files in a data CD :-). Anyway that's a start.

And for the .m3u listfile to data cd, I've done a small script that makes a
directory and copy/symlinks files from the m3u to that one so that I can get
all file from that dir to fill in the data CD. Just a workaround too.. not
very convenient :-).

Sebastian, would a plugin be able to unroll a m3u file contains to fill in a
data CD and be able to sort files according to the m3u contents, randomly or
as the user wish? I mean, is the plugin API enough to do all that (thinking
about contributing if I can learn the plugin API easily, not that much time to
spend on it)? I think that, regarding the lacks I've raised, creating a plugin
that would manage mp3 data cd creating would worth.
