Hi all, There is a binary file that is stored on the NW-A608 player that seems to be storing a table of contents of all files on the player. X:\OMGAUDIO\CONNECT\EXCNTMTA.DAT I'd like to know what the format of this file so that I can replicate it and make changes to it. Currently, the third party software NW-E00x Mp3 File Manager and voidMP3FM do not work on the NW-A608 because they are not updating the EXCNTMTA.DAT file. If anyone help me what the file format is, then I can help make changes to the NW-E00x Mp3 File Manager (which is open source). I'd also like to know if anyone's come across this problem before or has any idea on how to deal with it. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony considers this proprietary information and no one outside of the company knows the answer to this, but it's worth trying. thanks, --andrew

Does anyone have the service manual for the NW-A608? thanks, --andrew

Hi all, I am trying to get the voidMP3FM player working for my NW-A608. No one has definitively said that they have it woking for that model. I have not been able to do it yet, either (and I have a sneaking suspicion that it will be difficult to do). I'm able to run the program and do some sort of transferring of files. Whatever I transfer shows up as completed in the "walkman folders" pane, but when I disconnect the player, the tunes are not recognized, and I cannot play them. Any ideas about how I can get this to work would be greatly appreciated. thanks, --andrew
