Automatically export playlist to user specific folder

Post by monkeyfan1970 »

I would like to request an important feature.

A feature where MM automatically exports any/all playlist to .m3u format to a specify folder [User have specified in the option dialog box] whenever user made changes[add/remove/reorder track] to any playlists.

I think this option will be very useful to all users of MM. I am surprised that it is missing from MM4.

Looking forward in future MM4 builds.

Thanks.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I just tried on the latest MM4 build but when I click options, nothing appears.
I understand that this is a 3rd party add-on and it requires the developer to maintain it and MM4 is still in beta.

But it would be really great that a feature that is important as this is integrated in the official build.
It is like saying to have "watch folder function", you would require a separate add-on.

Thanks.

Sorry, but I disagree. Folder monitoring is basic functionality so it should be included in the main app. But automatic playlist export is an advanced feature that mostly only power users will need. That makes it perfect for an addon.

At any rate, there are posts in that thread indicating that it works fine in MM4. I suggest you post there if you need additional help to get it up and running.
