Oh! Oh dear, now I look back upthread you did kind-of say that before, and I didn't notice. If that's the case, the problem you have isn't the one we've all been trying to fix for you. And it's one I haven't seen before against 2.01-final: I had thought we'd found and fixed all the "persistent database rebuild failure" problems, but your player must have come up with a new one. You probably have something bogus in your *0 files that the player thinks is some kind of mammoth playlist.

But as Empeg has now all ended and we don't have access to the source code any more, there's nothing I can have you do to diagnose this, I'm afraid. Under the unfortunate circumstances, the quickest way to get your player back to life, unless anyone's got any really bright ideas, is to delete the contents of both drives' "fids" directories and re-populate it from empty.
