Transferring playlists from Mac to Linux

<< < (2/2)

Library Eye:
A few years ago, I more than once took my library from macOS to Linux, back again, and then again. I managed to get everything working without too much hassle, including playlists and maintaining play counts. You have to take some steps. I opened a thread here explaining, per notes and recollection, just what I'd done, in case anyone else ever needed or wanted to do the same. I haven't tried it again recently, though I may again one day, but I expect same process should work. No promises! but if you want to try… here is my old thread; read through whole thing including comment at bottom (a step I did take, but forgot to mention in my post) before starting. {If I ever do this again with a new version of JRiver, I will post again in a new thread under current version here in forum.}

Moving Mac Library to Linux

Just empty, nothing in. Like creating an new playlist and before adding files.

Library Eye:
Unless something major has changed in recent releases you probably do need to update the paths after importing library, not just copy and paste files over. Then all settings including playlist will work

I repeated it again according to your instructions and deactivated the Auto Import before - it worked. Thank you very much!
