Subject: Adding playlist in Sorune (Linux)

Using the most recent Sorune from the sorune.tk site (0.3.6), the procedures for adding a .m3u playlist to the Neuros under Linux is:

1. Prepare a playlist where the path to the music is based on the location of the .m3u list which must be in the base location of the music. Paths should NOT have a leading slash!

2. copy the script to the Neuros in the music directory from a terminal window

3. rebuild from Sorune, sync and exit

Example:
In the music directory on the Neuros (seen at /mnt/neuros/music on the host computer), music appears as album numbers (e.g. ol1189, klh1, jcds0186, etc) with OGG tracks (e.g. Track01.ogg, Track02.ogg, etc) below them. The .m3u playlist would then contain selections where paths are of the type:

ol1189/Track01.ogg
klh1/Track01.ogg
jcds0186/audio_01.ogg

It seems as though Sorune will not copy (at least I have not been able to find out how) this file to the Neuros, so it must be moved manually. When you rebuild with Sorune, the playlist will be added without copying the music files over again.

Hope this helps.
