I tried your script (first time I have done anything like that) and when I ran it I got and error as follows:

Error #76 - Microsoft VBScript runtime error
Path not found
File "C:\program files\mediamonkey\scripts\FIXN900m3us.vbs", Line:31, Column:0

I am completely stuck and can't imagine all the N900 users with music would accept all their tracks in alphabetical order!

Please can someone help as I am desperate to get all my music on this device.

I think the main points here are that fundamentally, if you have to go through all that scripting to SYNC a PHONE to a media player, there is something tremendously wrong.

I just plan to drag and drop my music and create new playlists using the built in media player, but for those who want to sync, it must be such a pain.

I gather the phone is amazing in so many ways, buts whats with these little niggly problems!?! Sigh. I guess even with a different OS, its still an 'N' series!

That's nice.

I would like to list mp3 also in subdirectories. I managed to to do it with this:
Code:
ls -R | grep mp3 | sort > playlistname.m3u
But I need list with realtive folder names or full folder names. Which one btw. works with default mediaplayer? And files should be sorted by mp3 file name, not by directory name.

.edit
Maybe with find?

not a solution, but maybe a pointer at the cause - are your albums ripped as .wma rather than .mp3 by any chance? I've also noticed that some of my albums are playing in alphabetical order instead of by track number, even though the tracks are tagged correctly, but it only happens to .wma's.

Yes, ripped as wma - although if I use windows media player and rip as wma lossless and convert during sync to wma 64kbps (to save space it is sorting alphabeticaly but loses all album art, apparently a wmp problem. If I use songbird and rip as FLAC and convert during sync to wma it copies album art but tracks in alphabetical order.. Driving me insane as I want tracks in correct order and album art.

Any ideas?

press on the song name you want to add and keep it pressed until the concept menu appears, then add the song to the playlist

i hope this helps

Any tips on how to remove a song from a saved playlist without having to delete the whole playlist and re create it? (painfull to do it with over 300 songs in a playlist)

I wanted to 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:

Code:
find -name \*mp3 | sort > playlist.m3u
Obviously this only works for files containing "mp3" in lowercase. It's pretty similar to commands already posted in this thread except that I piped the output of the find command into the sort command because the contents of each directory seemed to be ordered wrongly.
