does anyone here know java?

[blitzkrg]

I have this MP3 player that has a company specific file format for it's playlist.

it's not a simple text file like a .m3u file.. but has a binary format.

i found this german guy who wrote a program to parse the playlist files.

but it's in java.. i'd like to do something in autoit so i can work with it..but i dont understand java.

my goal is to be able to write a autoit program that i can drag and drop my mp3 files to,and it would upload them and output the correct playlist file to the mp3 player.. i can do the gui, drag and drop, upload and all that, it's just writing that binary playlist that i have no clue about..

here is the source, if you can help it would be apprechiated.
