Simple text m3u isn't readable by my device (a Samsung YP-T9), when I try to open one it says it's empty.
The device needs extended informations to be present such as the header and the length of the track.
Examples would speak better :
- m3u generated while syncing > not working on my device
\Music\#1\01 Intro.mp3
\Music\Creating Patterns\01 Conceptions.mp3
- m3u modified to work
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:60,Intro - Mr. Oizo
\Music\#1\01 Intro.mp3
#EXTINF:339,Conceptions - 4 Hero
\Music\Creating Patterns\01 Conceptions.mp3
To get the modified version I export the Media Jukebox playlist used to fill the device and I choose the extended m3u format.
Then I manually edit the m3u to change the path of each file to match the paths of the device.
It's a bit tedious.
So I wonder if it would be possible to add the extended m3u format to the list of available formats in the Handheld > Files & Paths > Playlist Format option ?
With support for relative paths, full paths and full paths without drive letter.
