Creating Playlists on Ihp using MC 10
molex:
The playlists in MC10 adds the drive letter to the file location (The IHPs don't reconise drive letters). If you open the playlist in notepad and remove the dirve letter then you can use the playlist if you store it at the root level.
SteveG:
molex,
Thanks for the tip. Can others please test exporting playlists to iRiver with manually removing the drive letter and confirm that this works? We don't have a player here to test.
Thanks,
Steve

as far as i can tell, #EXTINF:Num is the number of seconds the song lasts, and isn't key to the file working on the iriver.
i'm not too sure why the fact that \Documents and settings\blablabla don't matter. It's possible that the iriver checks with the database (iRivNavi.iDB) and figures it out for itself. in any case, what molex says correlates to my testing
SteveG:
ph_bradley,
Thanks for the post. Can you open the MC m3u in an editor and remove all the 'C:' and see if the iRiver plays the playlist properly?
Thanks,
Steve
ph_bradley:
simply deleting the C: or C:/ does nothing to help
i only have one file that worked, the following:

The directory structure exactly matches the layout of the folders on the iriver, so it seems in my previous post i was wrong, and that having /documents and settings/phil in there really does cause problems.
the #Extinf lines can be deleted with the m3u file function as normal, as long as the other stuff matches the location of the file on the iriver (not the PC)
perhaps the Export to m3u function can simply be modified to leave out the (Drive Letter):/Documents and settings/(User)/?
or an iriver plugin could determine where it is uploading to...
