Default Playlists

I'm not sure if this should be in the support, bugs or this forum, but anyway...

It seems that MP needs absolute paths in m3u playlists. When I create playlists usin WMP 10, it uses relative paths, which does not work in MP.

As I prefer using WMP to create playlists, because it is much more convenient and fast, I would really like WMP generated playlists to work. Is this a bug in MP or in me? Or maybe just not implemented yet?

Another question. Is WPL playlists supported? I cant get them to work properly either.

Default WPL Playlists aren't working for me either

They play but the playlist is not shown. Any ideas? Any programs you might know to convert all my wpl playlists to m3u?

Thanks,

Ssubo

Default Play WPL Playlists

Is there any way MP could play WPL playlists and display the contents? It plays them now if you add the wpl extension, but it doesn't show the contents.

Thanks,

Wpl support was added to MP a few days ago, so check it out in the next release.

Just like any other playlist. First make sure that .wpl is in the list of extensions for Music. You can set this in the Configuration application.

Make sure you save your playlists in a share so that you will be able to browse to it. Now start MP, navigate to the place where your playlists are, select a playlist and press Enter and it starts playing.

Default Sorting wired...

Indeed it plays the wpl playlists but for some reason the order in which the files are played is not the order that I have in the wpl playlists. Do you know why?

Thanks!

Check if the "Shuffle playlist on load" option is disabled in the configuration program. You can find the option in the Music section.

Does anybody know if the problem is solved in the newest MP version?
I am using MP 0.2.0.0 RC2 (CVS: 2006-02-18) and it does not seem to work in this version.
