That way you would be able to keep the mp3's as they were and still have the possibility to listen to them as an album, if the player supports matroska (*.mka).<br/>cheers,<br/>Fannar Hi,

Basically it has an override for the play-order, so that whenever it tried to play any of the tracks in a "play chain" it plays then all (in order).<p/>What it really needs is someone to design a decent UI for setting up/editing/removing the chains, and figuring out how it should interact with other play order overrides (i.e. the play queue).
