Re-use sync list on multiple devices [#11975]

Post by definitivebuckeye »

I've searched high and low within the MediaMonkey forums and across the web, but haven't found an answer to this. Can someone explain or point me in the right direction?

I want to re-use an auto-sync list that I configured on one device. For example, I have an Android phone and a MOTOACTV. On my PC with the music library I created the auto-sync set/list first for the phone and now want to use the same set on the MOTOACTV. I've spent tangible time creating the list for the phone, so don't want to manually duplicate it - either at present or in the future if I add or remove library content or adjust the sync set. If there is a way to do this, I will likely implement this across more than just these two specific devices (all would be Android).

Is there any way to do this?

You can't share the Auto-Sync list between devices, you'll need to set it up for each device.

Thanks for the quick reply, which I saw immediately. The more I've thought about it, the more I'm surprised this isn't possible. It seems like these days having a tablet, phone, and mp3 player (at least and for example) is pretty common and generally people would like a more-or-less consistent music set across all of the devices.

All that said, I'd like to express gratitude for MediaMonkey as I am new to it and am still appreciating all its current features.

I wouldn't be surprised that most sync different content as different household members use them or because they're used differently (I sync video to tablet, but audio to smartphone).

I don't think that it doesn't have merit though, so I've added a request here: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=11975
