Full Version: Make a *.m3u playlist...
Hydrogenaudio Forums > Hydrogenaudio Forum > General Audio
Keykey
That is basically what I'd like to do --> Right-click a folder and have an option to save a *.m3u playlist named after the folder's name. I really hate having to open a program to do so.

Been "googling" a bit but I just don't find anything of the sort.

TIA:

Edit: typo

Have the following in a .reg file and double click. smile.gif

CODE
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell\Create M3U playlist\command]

@="cmd.exe /c dir /o/b \"%1\\*.mp3\" > \"%1\\playlist.m3u\""
Keykey

1.- Thanks a lot biggrin.gif

2.- I am a complete retard or I am losing something in the way...

3.- I added the *.reg info OK and checked with Regedit it is there.

4.- I right-click the folder but I see no options blink.gif to give the command that an *.m3u is created.

5.- Am I missing somenthing important??

Greets.

change
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\
to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\
merge and reboot, or you might just need to reboot.

Excellent job, ~*McoreD*~. biggrin.gif

My machine must be very special. It does not work either crying.gif

This is what I did and rebooted then:

CODE
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\Create M3U playlist\command]

@="cmd.exe /c dir /o/b \"%1\\*.mp3\" > \"%1\\playlist.m3u\""

EDIT:

I wonder if somebody can try this REG trick and tell us if it is working....

We made some progress but not enough... The funny thing is that I DO get the right-click option if there are no *.mp3s in the folder crying.gif
If there are *.mp3s within the folder then it just will not work! blink.gif
