Hi, I’ve just been looking at this plugin and found that the lack of images in the list of images makes it difficult to know what the image is.
So I’ve just added a little hack to show the image in the image list (scaled down with html).
Not sure where to post the code, or if your interested in adding it to this plugin.
Thanx,,

Hi Dion.

Just tried the plugin and it works great. I was wondering if there is a way to set it to watch folder automaticly and import new files when they are added.

Its the WordPress security kicking in. WordPress 3.0 will bring more filetypes i believe.. Whitelisting sucks, but its unfortunately thebest way to be secure :(

Thanks for the plugin! I’m having a problem using it with m4b files tho and get this message:

“Walk One – Clip_1.m4b was not imported due to an error: File type does not meet security guidelines. Try another.”

Anything you can do?
