[Windows] Playlist location
#1
I am using a folder "(root)\music" for all my music and replicate this folder to my notebook and my XBMC-Media PC. My playlists, which I manage with Winamp are all "relative", like
"Johnson, Jack\In Between Dreams\11-Breakdown.mp3"
instead of
"d:\music\Johnson, Jack\In Between Dreams\11-Breakdown.mp3"

That's why I cannot move my playlists to the default location of XBMC in the UserData folder.

So I have changed my playlist location with the <playlistspath> section of the AdvancedSettings.xml and this works quite well. Problem now is: In XBMC I see all the playlists AND all the folders below my "(root)\music" in one looong list. And I want only the m3u playlists there

Is there a way to tell XBMC to show ONLY the m3u files in the Playlist window and NOT the folders and their content?

Thanks

Nope, not possible.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.

Does <playlistspath> still work with the latest nightlies? I have this :

<advancedsettings>
<pathsubstitution>
<substitute>
<from>special://masterprofile/Thumbnails</from>
<to>smb://192.168.0.2/xbmc/Thumbnails</to>
</substitute>
</pathsubstitution>
<playlistspath>smb://192.168.0.2/xbmc/playlists</playlistspath>
</advancedsettings>

But the playlists folder still defaults to /userdata. Any suggestions?

Also, can the keymaps folder be moved?

Thanks, Rich.
