sync 'now playing' with android?

Postby Guest » Sat Jun 30, 2012 12:29 pm

hi,
i been using mediamonkey for a long time now and love it.

hopping this is dumb question with easy answer:
can i synch my 'now playing' playlist with my phone? so do i need specific player app and mm settings? how do i/can i do this?
ty!

ps:
in mm i build massive playlists and listen to them in that order. i now want to continue that playlist, in that order, when im away from pc. i, with ipod, transfered my files manually to and off it using mediamonkey and feel now i may have misunderstood, or not understood, 'synching' all this time.

In the Now Playing Controls menu of the Now Playing window user Copy > Copy Playlist to Portable Device.

and doubletwist only recognises 1 albums 'artist/album tags'. the samsung/android/whoevers music player recognises them all but one (different album).
(i not married to a player yet. the one most similar to mm would do me, ha)

The order should be correct on the Playlist itself.

From MediaMonkey's perspective there should be no limit on Playlists length (I've successfully synced Playlists with 100's of tracks). If you find that if fails for you you may want to create a debug log (step 4b) covering the failed sync and send it to support: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=69

fyi, I tried with the default Android Music Player in gingerbread and the 'Now Playing' playlist does properly sync to the device and play the tracks in the correct order.
