Playlist question

Post by Grijando »

Hi. I have a playlist (Playlist.m3u) with a lot of lines with this format:
/storage/6161-3830/Música/Audio/Audio1.mp3
/storage/6161-3830/Música/Audio/Audio2.mp3
... and so on...
in a SD card on my Android device. I am interested in edit this Playlist.m3u files on my PC, since it has more than 400 tracks and it is more easy this way (modifying it on Android is difficult). But when I update this Playlist.m3u file in Windows, the file gets updated on the SD card, but MediaMonkey don't see the changes. Is it possible to modify a playlist in Windows and then copy to the Android device and have the changes done in MediaMonkey? Thanks!

Hi,
Delete playlist from MMA and then copy Playlist from Windows Under bit different name, it should make them playable.

Personally I think the problem is with "/storage/6161-3830/" as it is internal android path where ""6161-3830" correspond to mount point ID and not relative path eg. "/storage/6161-3830/Música/Audio/Audio1.mp3" should be "/Música/Audio/Audio1.mp3" or "../Música/Audio/Audio1.mp3" in case "playlist.m3u" is located at "/Playlists/".

Can you confirn that is teh change you do on Windows?

Hi Peke.

That did the trick! I also turned on the 'Update playlists from other apps' option that maybe did something.

Thank you very much, I have my playlists working now!

That also helps, please watch out if other apps clear M3Us as then Playlists in MMA will be also cleared. Most users prefer MMA <-> MMW playlist consistency so it is off by default.

Happy Monkeying!
