Nor have I ever had any issues with creating playlists in this fashion with any other of my Rockbox enabled DMPs (Archos JB V2, Ipod 5.5G).

These players only have one volume, so there is no extra directory that can cause problems.


--- Quote ---I noticed on a couple of my playlists that do play, that when I view the playlist through the context menu several of the songs appear thus:

1. (ERR)1 - Monday Morning

But why these errors some songs and not others? Like I said, I can navigate and play these files directly from their directory location no problem.

This means that Rockbox can't find the file in question (and removing any drive letter or leading directories didn't help).

Odd. It would have been nice to have the playlists in the same directory on the unit - so that is what I tried when I first bought the Sansa. But I found that if I move a playlist sync'd to the microsd card to the playlist directory on the main drive that definitely does crash Rockbox and I have to do a hard reboot.

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. I've not removed any drive letter or path. Nor have I modified these playlists once they are sync'd to the unit. I am only reporting what the unit displays on those few playlists which actually play - meaning there are a few songs n that list which don't return errors.

Chronon:
Rockbox will strip leading directories from paths in a playlist looking for a match.  For example, I have an album on my PC at "/home/username/Music/Tool/Undertow/09 - Flood.ogg".  Rockbox will find this file on my player from a playlist containing this path if a file exists on my player at, for example, "/Music/Tool/Undertow/09 - Flood.ogg".

vsl2005:
Thanks Chronon. Last time, then I give up, I promise: any ideas why Rockbox sees some files and not others? They are all there on the microsd, and I can navigate to them and play them successfully, so the song files themselves are not corrupted. As I posted above, there's no difference in syntax between the playlists themselves.

Chronon:
You initially described it as a crash, but now it just seems like Rockbox is not playing the files because it can't  find them (this is expected).  Does it do this with all files located on the microSD?
