Additionally, ephpod doesn't properly parse filenames either.

Since I've kindof anticipated file/dir name problems I've named all my
M4A files Artist - Album - Track - Name.mp4

But when I entered this scheme into Ephpod for name extraction, it
failed horribly and didn't know what to make of it all, adding all files
of one artist as the same filename. :(

Heh I keep on feeling sorry for Joe, only barely finished a new version
and gets hit with a ton of complaints, bug reports, feature requests..

Anyway.. Good luck. :)
