Import playlist failed #502

Closed Offerel closed 1 year ago

Offerel commented 1 year ago

I have saved a playlist in m3u format with relative paths to the songs. If I import this playlist, the import fails. The playlist is exported and created by a application called "Strawberry" under Arch Linux.

Is there some other playlist format with relative paths, which I should use instead?

tibbi commented 1 year ago

what do you mean by relative paths? Can you tell a sample?

mgolden356 commented 1 year ago

This might not help, but try adding

EXTM3U

At the top of the m3u file if not already there

Offerel commented 1 year ago

That's already there. Currently it's a utf-8 textfile with the following content:

#EXTM3U
Protonica/Assorted Waves 10/01 - Assorted Waves 10.mp3
Various/Birthday Mix/01 - Birthday Mix Part 2.m4a
Bonobo/Bonobos DJ-Set at Boiler Room/01 - @ Boiler Room NYC, Januar 2018.mp3
Die Vogelperspektive/Brise Podcast/01 - Brise Podcast.mp3

The playlist is saved in /storage/emulated/0/Music. The songs in the same folder as mentioned in the m3u file.

I have tested other players, and all of them can use the list without issues. I have not tested Phonograph, only Vinyl player, which seems to be based on Phonograph. There it works.

we dont plan adding support for such relative paths, it might not work due to system restrictions
