TFulton Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Is there a way I can change the paths for all the music in my playlists without having to go one-by-one through each song and edit the tags, or just rebuild the playlists? I've been using Poweramp for years, built lots of playlists, some pretty big, all stored on an SD card I've moved from phone-to-phone-to-phone.., and now all the sudden, no SD card reader.

andrewilley Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 PA will work it out from the M3U file, it only needs the filename and the first-level of containing folder to match. https://forum.powerampapp.com/kb/en_us/faq/what-is-the-difference-between-‘categories’-‘playlists’-and-the-‘queue’-r3/ Andre Quote Translate Revert translation?

TFulton Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 @andrewilley Okay, so what has changed is the first-level, because the files have been moved from SD to onboard storage. What I'm going to do is plug the phone into my computer, open the playlists in Notepad, and do a quick find/replace fix on the paths. Shouldn't take too long, I should have thought of it first. Thanks. Quote Translate Revert translation?

TFulton Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 @andrewilley Changed the path to /storage/emulated/0/Music I copied from My Files app in Android, didn't work. Something look wrong with that path? Quote Translate Revert translation?

andrewilley Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 As I said, there is no need to change the root path details in the M3U file at all, Poweramp ignores everything in an M3U playlist file except for the audio filenames and the folder that they are contained within. So PA will treat storage/Music/Albums/Abba/Dancing_Queen.mp3 as exactly the same matching item as C:\Users\name\Audio\My Music\Collections\Abba\Dancing_Queen.mp3 All it cares about is that Dancing_Queen.mp3 is contained in a folder called Abba , anywhere in the scanned Music library.
