Playing local playlists .m3u8, .m3u, .cue

[mekket]

Since yt-dl is not working properly - It would be great if it was possible to play local music from a premade playlist file. For example I have CDs and mixes with split songs but they include a playlist file(.m3u8, .m3u, .cue) that would turn the split mix into a continuous mix. Right now, if i try to start these playlist files, it does not work.

I know that I could manually add every single song but this would take forever if I wanted to play a lot of music and keep adding new stuff.

Playlists are supported though the !list … commands: https://github.com/Splamy/TS3AudioBot/wiki/Playlists I think you should be able to do !list import mylist /path/to/list.m3u and !list play mylist.

I am aware of the list commands and I use them daily, however I was not able to get it to work: I am getting the following result: Error: Could not load. (media: An unknown error occoured.)

If I could get this to work - it would be a kind of a workaround to my problem but still I think it would be a great improvement if it was possible to straight out just play the existing list instead of importing a list every time I or someone else wants to play something new.

And now that I think about it - It would be even better if i could feed the bot a directory which contains music files/playlists/mp3s and the bot would then see which files it recognizes and plays them straight out of the folder.

Can you paste the relevant part from the log file please? There should probably be an exception there (note that the log file contains stacktraces while the console output does not).

I agree that using !play <playlist> would be nice.

I’m not sure but it might already be possible to use a folder as a playlist.

Is this what i was supposed to paste?

I tried multiple playlists and they all give the same result. I have also tried to use !play (folder path) but that does not work for me either. Maybe I am not giving the correct command?

[Flakebi]

Yes thanks, that’s the correct part. So it complains that it can’t find a part of the path /opt/teamspeak/teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64/files/virtualserver_1/channel_1/Muusika/Armin%20Van%20Buuren%20-%20A%20State%20Of%20Trance%20488%20(2010-12-23)%20(Inspiron)/[Armin%20van%20Buuren]%20A%20State%20of%20Trance%20Episode%20488%20(2010-12-23)%20(ASOT%20Top%2020%20of%202010).m3u. Does this file exist there?

!list import mylist /path/to/folder may work?

[mekket]

Yes i am sure that the file is there. "!list import mylist /path/to/folder" Did work and the bot even sees the playlist files but if i play this newly imported list it just skips over those. It starts playing the mp3 files. Sadly the tracklist/queue is incorrect. For example the list i just imported was originally a continuous mix which has been split into parts and it is supposed to be played in a certain order. Probably the same with some albums. But still this is already making things easier for me.

Also if i try your method of adding local music, it only works if you feed it a direct folder which contains music and does not see inside subfolders. In my opinion it would also be a nice enhancement if the bot could search for music inside subfolders. For example: Artist folder - multiple album folders - mp3s. I would like to give the bot the artist folder and have it pick out all of the mp3s.
