Calibre pushing m3u playlist to CC
Hi all,
I followed the advice from a topic on this forum in how to avoid to let Calibre copy all mp3 files (we're talking audiobooks now), and instead create a m3u playlist file. This works perfect in my current setup on Windows 7. (I installed the MP3 plugin). However, when I look in CC for supported extentions, m3u is not included. I understand that there are some challenges when moving a m3u file to a mobile device, since the path to the mp3 files will most likely not be working. So what would be the best way to deal with this. |

A Playlist is like index.html, it controls the order Not every device can handle a single 300MB file The Issue I frequently see, is most playlists contains Absolute paths. It does NOT need that if the playlist is packaged with the book files, relative paths work just fine with my MP3 players What we could use is a MP3Z/R file (MPZ is used ), unfortunately, the burden would be on CC/Calibre to pack and un pack these before passing to the player |

Actually, I don't know how to stop it, but I think creat m3u playlist is a good idea. Well, maybe this tutorial is helpful. What is an M3U File & How to Play M3U Files? But, I am not sure it is really useful because I just contact m3u file before long.
