Please clarify what you're asking for...

The player software can only play specific kinds of files. Right now, that's only MP3 and MP2, and in 2.0 it will add WAV and WMA. There might be a couple of others, but that's pretty much it.

Emplode deliberately does not allow you to drop files onto it if the player can't play that file type. This is to prevent tech support hassles- people calling and wondering why their AVI movies won't play when they drop them onto emplode, for example.

This also has the nice side-effect of allowing you to drop an entire directory structure onto Emplode, spurious files and all, and have it only add the files it can play.

So the fact that Emplode won't accept MOD files is "by design".

HOWEVER...

If you look at the Emptool source code, you can see the bits where they filter for different file types. If you wanted to implement your own loader for your nonstandard file types, it should be pretty easily do-able.

ALSO...

I often use the empeg to taxi large ZIP files between home and work. I do this by faking out emplode: I name the file "Taxi.zip.MP3" and drop it onto emplode. It works. I don't know if that's enough for your plans, but if it is, then you've got a very simple work-around.
