p00wer Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Can I make a play list with Windows Media Player? I have tried to do this and I can see the playlist but the file is empty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 You can, but don't forget that playlist files usually contain full directory path information to identify the music files, which will not be the same on your PC as they are your phone, so you might need to edit the playlist file in a basic text editor to make it work on your phone (although Poweramp does try to work out the correct path for you).For example, on my PC a given file may be in the location:M:\TV, Films & Shows\Doctor Who\Doctor Who - Series 1+2\01-14 Rose's Theme.mp3Whereas on my phone it is located in:/mnt/extSdCard/Music Folders/TV/Doctor Who/01-14 Rose's Theme.mp3A bit of global Search & Replace might quickly fix that though.Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweptwing Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Not sure if it's the same on WMP but I created a Playlist on iTunes then I simply right click on the playlist, select export, choose M3U as the file format and save it in my phones music directoryPower amp automatically found the playlist and it is working fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Yes, that's how WMP works too - you just need to be aware of the possibility of path details being different on different devices, although Poweramp will do its best to work it out for you.

hexradnor Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Interestingly sometimes I find iTunes exported lists don't need their paths changed on my nexus 4 in Poweramp - but I haven't tested this at length Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
