Rockbox iBasso DX90 totally busted
24bits:
The location for the m3u playlist music is F:\Music Collection. Then it reads the title of the track. So, what is the proper path then? What exactly is the proper setup for this to work right? There is no way to get an m3u playlist created on a pc to save to a specific path. You generate your playlist and you save as an m3u. And thats it. It saves to the path of the music folder source, in my case right now it is a thumb drive via otg. This same thumb drive sourced my foobar2000 application with the music as i created the m3u list.
So, assume I dont know what file paths even mean right now. How do I get an m3u playlist to work with Rockbox on this dx90. So far, nobody who owns the dx90 that rockboxed it is able to do so that I've spoken to in other forums and online. I appreciate your help so far, if I can just get past this wall, I'll be happy.

A path is string describing the location of a file in a file system. For example:
C:\windows\file.dll
\tmp\whatever.txt
I have no idea what the file system looks like on the DX90, but since its an android system, its probably a fairly normal looking linux file system. If you want your M3Us to work, they have to point to files on the player. Take a look at the M3U file you made. Does it point to files on the player? If not, it may still work because if you give Rockbox an obviously wrong path (e.g. C:\music\file.mp3), it'll try to guess what you meant by cutting out the C:\ and looking for \music\file.mp3. If that file exists, it'll be played. But if your m3u contains a path that is correct for the system (e.g. music\file.mp3) and that file doesn't exist, you're out of luck.
24bits:
Could not get anything to work correctly with this. Tracks on the device are located in /mnt/usb_storage/
the text file of the m3u playlist lists all tracks as F:\ when i created it, due to it being in the F drive label on the pc. I swapped all instances of F:\ after opening it in a text reader, changed it all to /mnt/usb_storage/
So keeping the paths the same doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
cholero:
I will try it soon on my DX50 and give a feedback. I will see what the problem are with the ibassos.
I've never used playlists except the "now playing"-playlist.
24bits:
I just got it to work. Will update with details later.
