1. are the files that the itunes playlist reference on the music files referenced by LMS on the rPi (attached drive or NAS)? 2. In iTunes, can you go to an existing playlist and save it as an ".m3u" file? (This should be basically a text file). 3. If in 2. above you can save these files as *.m3u, then you simply copy those .m3u files into the LMS playlist directory on your attached drive or NAS (in LMS > Settings > Basic Settings, playlist folder (in my case, this playlist folder is at: /mnt/LMSfiles/music/playlist, and that's a USB drive attached to my rPi that holds my music files and my playlist files). note, for 2 above, if the itunes playlists are of underlying music files in a *different* location than where your rPi is looking, you'll have to open these m3u files (text file recall) and do a find and replace to change the file reference to the correct location. Example, maybe on itunes, the playlist reference was to: c:\music\Bob Dylan\Bringing it All Back Home\01 - Subterranean Homesick Blues.flac but for the rPi it needs to be: /mnt/LMSfiles/music/Bob Dylan/Bringing it All Back Home/01 - Subterranean Homesick Blues.flac (where I've mounted the rPi attached USB drive with the name "LMSfiles" Once you figure out the references above you can do a simple "find and replace" in your m3u text files to fix this in a batch manner. for example: Find: c:\music\ Replace with: /mnt/LMSfiles/music/ *Home:* Pi4B-8GB/pCP8.x/4TB>LMS 8.2.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* rPi4B-4GB/pCP8.x/4TB>LMS 8.2.x>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>foobar2000 *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP7.x/4TB>LMS 8.1.x>hifiberry Dac+Pro (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir3 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, Material Skin, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* -Ripping-: dBpoweramp > FLAC; -Post-rip-: mp3tag, PerfectTunes, TuneFusion; -Streaming:- Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116821 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
