2. Some devices fully support browsing by Long Filenames but due the speed of reading playlists content of playlist must point to files using 8.3 filenames.

Procedure in this case would be to write Playlists on the sync end where code from http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.php/ISDBFileSystem::GetShortPath would be used to create playlists
