Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Use case: I have a Sansa Clip that I use as a portable media player. I
want to create a playlist (either pls or m3u) on my desktop computer and
transfer it to my device by dragging my newly created playlist and
dropping it to my Sansa Clip device.
Expected results: Rhythmbox populates my portable media player with the
songs in my playlist, and copies over the playlist to the device
reformatting it using relative links so it properly links to the music
files on my device.
Actual result: Can't drag and drop playlists to music device (this
appears to be unsupported).
Work around: The only way I've found to make a playlist on my portable
mp3 player, is by creating a new directory on my desktop computer,
dragging all the files I want copied over to that directory, creating a
playlist of that directory using something like easytag (making sure it
uses relative paths), opening that playlist with rhythmbox to arrange
the songs in the order I want them, then copying that directory (which
includes my playlist to my Sansa Clip. A lot of work!!!
