Title: Automatically create playlists?
Post by: geoelectric on November 16, 2003, 12:44:56 am

I have a bunch of music ripped already in Artist/Album under My Music.  I also have a bunch more to go.

What I need is one playlist per album, preferably in the album directory itself.  What I'd like to -not- do is individually go through each album in my Media Library and say "Send to Playlist", having to change the output directory each time.  Is there a way to autogenerate this using the folder structure or tags?  Also, is there a setting in MC9 to make it generate a playlist upon ripping an album?

Many programs have an option to create an M3U playlist upon ripping.
Unfortunately MC does not have this function.
It will however import these playlists so they can be used.  
(I have used other ripping software specifically for this reason, although it is less convenient than just using MC).

It would be nice if MC learned to create these album playlists also.
