Removing Empty Playlists
« on: January 03, 2025, 06:33:03 pm »
I have numerous "imported playlists" that are empty because their files have been moved or incorrectly specified in m3u, m3u8 formats. Is there a method to automatically delete these playlists?

Try find and replace.

This is unfortunately not a solution, it must be possible to delete playlists that appear empty without deleting each playlist manually?

Why not try to fix them?  If you know the old location, you can use find and replace to replace it with the new location.

Is deleting the whole imported playlist group too drastic?

In a related note, it would be nice to select more than one playlist in a group or in the tree by using the shift key to do what you ask or to change playlist presets.
