Yup. Just make sure those song folders are all in the folder named 'Songs', which is in the 'In the Groove 2' folder.
Like this:
In the Groove 2->Songs->song folders
EDIT:
I almost forgot, for the 2 minute time limit thing. You can get around it by downloading the OGG Length patch. Its really easy. Once you download it, you just drag the ogg to it and it automatically reduces its length to 1:45. Actually, it just tricks the machine to think its under 2 minutes. I don't know where you can download it though. |

Just make a folder called 'songs', then stick all your songs in there. Easy as that. No need to make any other sub folders or anything. |

Looks like you're all set!
As long as the songs are patched, everything should be smooth sailing. And Google 'OGG Length patch' to find the app that lets you get around the 2:00 time limit. |

This is correct.
I also included the patch in my R21 mix listed below...
...but all my files are between 1:34 - 2:07 _________________

1) you don't get samples
2) you don't get banners and backgrounds
3) either your files are bad or the USB slot on the machine is flaky _________________

the machine loads however many files it can in a certain time frame (not sure exactly how long), and sometimes, songs that didn't show up in your previous set will magically appear, as a few may not show up later on.
If you have any backgrounds, banners, DWI files, CD titles, etc... Delete them. All you need is the .ogg and .sm
It'll also help if you reduce the quality of the music. (reducing a 4MB music file to 2MB should help A LOT) _________________
