Manually create playlist?

(1/2) > >>

jagdriver:
I'm not yet ready to use a tool like dbm. Rather, I want to manually create a playlist on my Sansa Fuze that uses tracks from both the internal ##MUSIC# and the external <microSD1> folders. I need some syntax help.

1) Should the file still have a .M3U extension?
2) For internal file paths, will ##MUSIC#\MUSIC\artist - filename.mp3 suffice?
3) For external references, will <microSD1\MUSIC\artist - filename.mp3 suffice?
4) Should I use \ or / in the filepaths?

Thanks!

try this post from a while back.

in it i explain how to create and edit a playlist on your player.

jagdriver:
Thanks, but I have several hundred tracks I want to add to a playlist. Having to add them one at a time would take forever (and drive me mad).

Please refer to the org. question. I want to know how to manually create a playlist that will play on my Fuze, drawing from both internal and external memory.

For example, I can use Notepad in Windows to create a simple list of mp3s—complete with fully-qualified filenames—and name it with an M3U extension. I want to know how to do something comparable that'll be fully compatible with Rockbox on my Fuze (again pulling tracks from both internal AND external memory).

MajiKool Dragonâ„¢:
use "/"s
and for songs on the microsd... "/<microSD1>/" for the drive name... song stored on internal memory dont need drive name just start the file path with with a "/"

jagdriver:
Thanks... I'll try that.
