Playing Playlists In ClipZip

<< < (3/6) > >>

ClipZip:
Lear, thanks for the info. I just bought the Sansa Clip Zip about a week ago and just tried copying some MediaMonkey playlists to <microSD1> card. They didn't play.

Then, I saw your post here and followed your advice, used Windows WordPad to edit the playlist using WordPad's Find and Replace feature and replaced the D:\ at the beginning of each line with <microSD1>\ and it now plays the playlists correctly on the Zip.

Thanks again!

FWIW, they should play without editing anything using the build I posted above.

ClipZip:
Saratoga, would your build work since all my music files are in a folder named \audio\music on <microSD1>?  

I do not automatically sync Sansa Clip Zip with MediaMonkey 4.x as it seems to take a very long time to do this. Should I automatically use the sync feature of MediaMonkey, and use your build to make this work automatically?

When I manually copy playlist from MediaMonkey, I do the following:
1. Connect Zip to PC and wait for PC to show Sansa Clip Zip Drives: G: (internal) and M:(external microSD card)
2. Highlight playlist I want to copy
3. Right click and select Send to -> M3U/XPPF playlist -> M:\playlist-name.m3u
4. Now, I have to edit the playlist and replace the "D:\" with "<microSD1>\".

Thanks for your advice in advance. Any help is appreciated as I am not sure how to correctly set this up the best way to use with MediaMonkey and Sansa Clip Zip.

saratoga:
Like I said above, it just gets rid of the need to add <microsd1>, nothing else.

Edit:  well assuming the playlist is stored on the microsd card.  If you put it on the main memory, you'll need to keep putting the microsd1.

ClipZip:
OK, thanks. Also, I found that .m3u playlist files can point to music files in 2 ways:

If the mount point is <microSD1>\audio\music\song-name.mp3 and playlist resides on <microSD1>, then:

Specific Link: <microSD1>\audio\music\song-name.mp3

Relative Link: audio\music\song-name.mp3
