Exporting Playlists?
« on: January 27, 2004, 07:42:16 am »

I was just wondering, what is the purpose of exporting playlists? I cannot find any options to import them. I thought it would be nice to export a playlist from one system and import it on another.

For one thing it is a means of backup. If you have Audio Playlists checked in File Associations and you run MC>Tools>Import Media, the lists will be imported. You can do what you mentioned...as long as the absolute paths to the media are the same between the systems.

I haven't been successful at importing playlists using these instructions, although possibly I just don't know where to look for them once they're imported.  I've tried importing both .m3u and .mpl files; after scanning a directory of 40 files, I'm told that 0 'new files were found' and 0 'failed to import'.  Does this mean they were successful in importing?  If so, where are they? They don't appear under 'Playlists'...
