synchronizing purchased iTunes V6 .m4p files

[autobot.transformer]

all .m4p files I synch with MM do not play on my iPod (but do after synching with iTunes). does anybody know how to fix this ?

The problem you are facing is caused by MM's not supporting this file type. This is mainly because iTunes uses DRM software to prevent music piracy.

The easiest workaround is to burn these songs to a CD and then convert the CD to MP3 files, which can be recognized by MM.

I am currently using the winamp plugin to play m4p files in MM. tag info is not complete, but it's working quite ok.
Obviously the plugin is not sufficient to support synching the files with the ipod....

Yes, beside In_???.dll you Need f_???.DLL (That Is MM Format Plugin to add support for tag managment in specific formats and to read all incorrect/Relative info which is not read by In_???.dll).

thanks peke, and were would i find those f_xxx.dll or doesn't it exist...

For m4p they do not exists. Format plugin structure is not releases althru it may be released in future when it can be more cusomizable and usable for third party developers.
