Create playlists in windows for rockbox???

(1/3) > >>

Sepharat:
Hi, I would like to know if there is any way to create playlists using windows. I mean, searching inside the music stored in the (in my case) ipod with some program (for example winamp or whatever) and then saving the created playlist in a directory into the ipod. Is it possible or i need to create all playlists using ipod?
Thanks

Chronon:
I believe that Winamp should work.  

In fact I have just verified that this works.  Any program capable of making m3u playlists of the files on your player should work fine.

ColdSphinx:
Start Winamp, Foobar or any other musicpayer on your PC with m3u playlistsupport.
Create a new playlist from the files on your player and save the playlist as m3u to your player.

I think there are nearly nomore musicpayers out there without support for relative paths on the playlists.

Yotto:
If you just want all the files in a directory, from a dos prompt in that directory type:

dir /b *.mp3 > playlist.m3u

If you want to do some subdirectories, do:

dir /s /b *.mp3 > playlist.m3u

Change your extension and playlist name as needed.

ryran:
For the record, Yotto's first solution would only work if you kept the playlist created in the same directory of all the files.

The second solution isn't going to work at all for a dap, considering that the /s switch doesn't use relative paths.
