Playlist Catalogue: Find playlists in multiple directories?

(1/1)

Bryanhoop:
It would be fantastic if the playlist catalogue could aggregate playlists from multiple directories, specifically playlists stored in a playlists folder on the internal memory and playlists file stored on the microsd card.

I can't imagine that it would be too hard to implement. Ideally, the playlist catalogue should be able to find all playlists stored in the filesystem.

A lot of programs that sync to Rockbox devices recognize the internal and external memory as distinct drives and can only sync playlists to the drive that contains the music files referenced in the playlist.

torne:
The playlist catalogue is just a directory browser with some different default behaviours for buttons, so it's not trivial to implement.

http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/224/ is work I started a while ago to make this possible.

I would love to see this as well, for the same reason: playlist folders on both the internal and SD.

As a workaround, I made the Shortcuts menu the first item in my main menu, and added shortcuts to the internal and SD playlist folders.  Not as nice as a single consolidated playlist catalog, but much better than navigating to the folders using the file browser.
