I have a Dell Axim x50 running Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition. I am running Windows Media Player 10 for Pocket PC. I have a wireless network at home that I can successfully acces from my Axim and would like to stream music files from my home server to my Axim. I can successfully load a *single* mp3 file from my home server using the "Open URL..." command in Media Player (file://\\Server Name\path...) but what I would really like to do is to be able to have Media Player see the files on my home server as a library, so that I can use shuffle play. However, the "Open file..." command only seems to see the files and data stored locally on my Axim, and does not list my home server. Is there any way to access external data from using Media Player 10?

Try jonmisurda's playlist editor. I don't use it that way but I've heard good things.
