how to adapt your script for macOS? #1

Hi @kriswebdev, thank you for m3truid

In macOS Ventura, I've followed all the steps from 1. to 3. and have Python v.2.7.18 installed. pip install slugify also installed as supposed. db and your script are in the first level of my home folder. You script runs, finds the db but doesn't generate any m3u files (no new files or folder appears in my home folder) - I guess because you made it for Windows, right?

Do you know how it would needed to be adapted to run 100% in macOS?

To make sure the db is as expected, I'm attaching it here (so you can check if it can extract m3u playlists in Windows as supposed): external.db.zip

Media absolute basepath of the SD card with all the tracks would be /storage/6630-6132/ .. but all the empty .pla playlists are stored on internal storage, e.g. /storage/emulated/0/Playlists/FT Start.pla

Would be awesome if you could shed a bit of insight here 🥇

[EDIT]if run in Windows, where would your script place the m3u playlists? In the base of the user folder, or into the same folder of (= "next to") your script?

In just had a chance to run all this in Windows 11, also with latest/ final Python v.2.7.18: same thing, no m3us are generated .. :(

Maybe you have more luck: external.db.zip (same db as above).
