Importing itunes XML playlists

<< < (2/2)

dlxneamtu:
I think it has to do with the .xml location. I am running MC17 in a Windows 7 virtual machine and and iTunes on my mac Mountain LIon. The xml file exported from iTunes looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

This does not work. MC will not show any song in the playlist. Any ideas on what to be done?

Thanks,
Dan

MrC:
I think it is this:

         <key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Users/dneamtu/Music/Oldies/01.%20Bonnie%20Tyler%20-%20Total%20Eclipse%20of%20The%20Heart_The%20Greatest%20Hits.mp3</string>

The path needs to be changed to one MC and Windows understands.  Somewhere I posted about this, but I can't find it at the moment.
