Export All Playlists missing in action [BUG#5185]

[Lowlander]

Tools > Scripts > Export all Playlists seems to missing in action, it seems instead there is an Export subscribed Podcasts. Is this intentional or will it return in a later beta?

I think this may be why...

Which build? FWIW it is present on 1209. EDIT: and 1212.

[nynaevelan]

Do you have the Export M3Us and Export OPML present??

Do you have the Export M3Us and Export OPML present??

On Tools, Scripts > ? No.

[nynaevelan]

So for whatever reason it is only creating the link for one or the other??

Reported as 5185.

Now just had the ExportM3U with the ExportOPML values. I got it all fixed now, so I can test Crissjj bug report. Thanks

I was receiving the same thing but did you add references for the OPML?? I don't use either script so it hasn't bothered me but they should both be included, correct?

Not knowingly, but then I have no idea what the OPML is.

[Lowlander]

I changed the ExportM3U to ExportOPML as it was already correct for OPML export and added ExportM3U back in.

OPML (Outline Processor Markup Language) is an XML format for outlines. Originally developed by Radio UserLand as a native file format for an outliner application, it has since been adopted for other uses, the most common being to exchange lists of web feeds between web feed aggregators. The OPML specification defines an outline as a hierarchical, ordered list of arbitrary elements. The specification is fairly open which makes it suitable for many types of list data.

It basically allows users to move all their feeds or groups of feeds between applications/machines without having to move each one individually.

Well obviously. But I have no idea what it is in MM, having never seen such an MM feature. If it is documented anywhere, please do say.

[Lowlander]

It's a script that I think might be new to 3.1. It's available under Tools > Scripts > Export subscribed Podcasts.

> Export subscribed Podcasts

No script titled ExportOPML seen there, but no matter.

[Lowlander]

It's the scripts name, not what is visible to the user. ExportOPML is used in scripts.ini and ExportOPML.vbs.

Oh. Then how a user is expected to answer "Do you have the Export M3Us and Export OPML present??", GOK.
