Is there any way to prevent the D3 from including podcasts either in stock player or Poweramp when playing music library on shuffle?

If I put a .nomedia file in the podcasts folder then they simply do not show up. Without one, as they are in mp3 format they normally just get included in the music library.

There appears to be no option to select which folders to use a music library and the D3 just selects all mp3s.
I have then tagged as genre Podcast but that is simply for me to find them by genre rather than name.

The stock player is relatively simple and can't see how to do it there but Poweramp has a number of folder options which only show the microsd card and not the folders on that card.

Any ideas?

I don't think any option to exclude folders exists. You can use Es file explorer to view the hidden files.

Thought not. Ah well. Just have to live with it. Every other Cowon device seems to be getting updates apart from this so I presume Cowon have moved on and the D3 is dead.
Cheers Cowon.
