Dynamic link for files of play-list

[ghost]

I'll try to explain why I think that can be a good feature (English is not my own language).

I have database with folder and sub folder: Allmusic/Flac or ogg/ etc.. /artiste-album/file I have reorganized and clean up my data base and conserve the sub-folder (like Flac/ or Ogg/) as there was. But the "meta" folder Allmusic/ have changed, because before their was in "something/etc..". So all my play-lists are broken.

I would love exaile to change playlist path of the files if the concerned folder is renamed and/or moved. (of course if I can simply do that manually in any file please tell me! ;) )

You can sorta do this with Exaile.

If you export an m3u playlist, when you import it again Exaile will try really hard to find all the tracks that belong to the playlist and match them up. It works even better if the directory structure is exactly the same, but in a different place.

However, the thing you're talking about would require Exaile to use a key for tracks that isn't based on the filename (which is essentially how it's done now). In theory, one could do such a thing based on the hash of the music content of a file... but I'm not sure any audio player really deals with this case particularly well.

I've tried with m3u but can't succeeded in doing that.

I've got playlists from X/Y/parent folder/tracks X and Y was renamed and now it's A/B/parent folder/tracks

Thanks anyway for idea. Another one? :D
