1256 My Computer playlist folder Send to device fails[#5912]

Post by chrisjj »

1 On a My Computer folder containing only Playlists, right-click and click Send to... <device>

Expected: sends playlists to device (especially since the same on a folder of tracks does send the tracks to the device)
Observed: does nothing

This is disappointing particularly to users who like me would rather send playlists to device without going via the library and the bugged Add/Rescan.

Workaround: Send each playlist (100's here :( ) individually

Anyone know a good workaround for this?

My current workaround is ghastly:

1 Run MM as a second user (to preserve the main user's library)
2 Clear all library tracks (to workaround Add/Rescan failure to pick up emptied tags) by deleting from track list (to workaround Clear Library losing of device configs)
3 Delete all imported playlists (to workaround Add/Rescan failure to update previously imported playlists)
4 Add/Rescan the playlist folder and Auto-sync.

Any improvement welcome! Thanks.

Much improvable on MM4: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =1&t=77475
