Not finding a good way to manage my podcasts on my Sansa e250 and I'm already manually dumping files from iTunes anyway (my choice).
For the meantime, here is synch.bat to del all files in the Podcasts directory on the Sansa and then xcopy everything in the iTunes Podcasts directory. It's not quick, but it works.
echo off cls del "g:\music\podcasts\*" /S /Q xcopy "D:\music\Ipod\Podcasts\*.mp3" /S "g:\music\Podcasts\"
Next step I plan to write something that checks:
Does file exist in both places - don't copyDoes file exist in dest and not in source - del destDoes file exist in source and not in dest - copy source- Do I have enough room to copy source -> dest - copy oldest files first
Implement create directory if not exist routine- Cleanup the code
- Make dest drive setting value
