Where are the N900 Music Playlists stored ?
 

Hey all ... I have a simple question: Can someone tell me where the N900 stores manually compiled playlists ?? I'm gonna do a full restore using the NSU, and so I thought I should backup the playlists I created manually since their creation took a long time :p

Thanks in advance :)

Playlists created in the device (N900) seem to be stored to /home/user/.mediabox/playlists/

The internet radio stations are stored in /home/user/.mafw.db in case you added some streams that you want to keep.

Regular playlists are in /home/user/.mafw-playlists/

Correction: Those are actually only Mediabox playlists...

does anyone have an answer to this question? i want to locate the auto-playlists because im the kind of person that sorts his music from new to old, not alphabetically, i was thinking that id find out where the auto-playlists are and then change it to show more than 30 songs. or is there a way to sort the songs without going into the playlist section? i think this should be a feature in the mediaplayer..

I'm also looking for the answer to this question.

hi!!!
look at /home/user/.mafw-playlists/ you can edit the playlits with pygtkeditor.

i.e. ~$ pygtkeditor /home/user/.mafw-playlists/5

and the file is like:

V2
5
Mix total
0
0
34
0
0,localtagfs::music/songs/%2Fmedia%2Fmmc1%2FSounds%2FDigital%2FLouis%20Armst rong%20-%20My%20Greatest%20Songs%2F01%20C%27est%20Si%20Bon .mp3

Thanks for the info. I managed to find another way to achieve what I was trying to do: create an 'All Songs' playlist, sorted by path not by song title.

I had to read up on how to use the find command, piping and redirecting... still new to this Linux game. :) What I did was cd to my music folder - /home/user/MyDocs/.sounds/Music/ - and run the following command:

Obviously this only works for files containing "mp3" in lowercase. :)

And where are the automatic playlists located??
Like Recently added, Recently played, Most played and Never played playlists?

I cant find them :(

ok, here's the DRILL:

I' stuck with a personally-created "Favourites" playlist, which JUST KEEPS REAPPEARING NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I DELETE IT!!!!

the aformentioned directory /home/user/.mafw-playlists contained some files that seemed to be the Media Player's lists, but erasing them did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

the problem is.... i can't save a playlist named "Favourites" anymore, as it keeps reverting to the same 33-tracks-containing "favourites" playlist that clang itself to my N900!!!!

fact is, this persistent little BI*CH works just fine, all 33 tracks playing as they should...
