I'd like to import an old playlist of my favorites from Logitech Media Server. The format is *.opml. In the WIKI of JRiver I`ve seen that playlists with this format are supported but I can`t succeed. On another computer with JRiver I`ve already done this with success but can`t remember the way. Could someone help me please?

Kind regards

Your favorites opml file is in the LMS preferences folder, such as (I'm using Squeezebox Server, so adjust your path accordingly):

   C:\Users\All Users\Squeezebox\prefs

The references inside the LMS opml playlist might be any of:

  1. file references to your tracks
  2. URLs to radio stations
  3. LMS-specific album references, without a file path, e.g.:

     <outline URL="db:album.titlesearch=The Hours" icon="html/images/albums.png" text="The Hours - Philip Glass" type="audio" />

Importing 1. and 2. can be done, but 3. won't convert directly.

What types does your opml file consist of, and how many entries does it contain?

I should include a workaround.

Open the Favorites in the LMS web interface.  Click the + in each item to include it in the Now Playing playlist.  Once all are included, you can save the Now Playing playlist to another playlist, such as "To Import to MC".  This playlist will be an m3u playlist, stored in the configured My Playlists folder for LMS.  You can directly import this into MC.

That solved my problem. Thank you very much!
