Playlist Export File Format
« on: Yesterday at 06:51:55 pm »

I am running MC30 and when exporting a playlist to a USB drive, I get the following file structure.

C:/Users/willi/Music/Sons of Ju--------   This fails when trying to use it.   I previously exported playlists and got the following format.

.\..\Music\Jackie Evancho\Dr---

The music is in the "Music" folder on the USB drive and this file structure works.

How do I get MC30 to export and create this file structure on the USB drive?

The "export playlist" function just creates the playlist file but doesn't copy any actual media file, so the paths will still point to their original location. As the USB drive letter is not C:, the paths have to be full and not relative. The playlist will only work when the USB stick is plugged in to the same PC as the media files.

You probably want to use the Sync function to actually copy the media files too - copying them manually won't work (but sync may recognize they're already there and use the correct paths):
