How to make playlists on the SanDisk Clip Sport on Linux
published: 2019-08-13
- Make a playlist with the songs you want in VLC.
- Save said playlist as an .m3u file. (Other playlist file types will not work.)
- Make a copy of said playlist file. Open it up in a text editor of your choice.
- Remove all the lines that start with "#EXTINF".
- Using the find-replace function, change the following strings:
Whatever the path to your main music folder on your computer is, starting with "file:///", to "\Music". For example, the path to my main music library is file:///mnt/Hell3/Music/Music Archive/Popular. (My music is sorted into "Popular", "Soundtrack", and "Vaporwave".)
"%20" to " " (that is, a space).
"/" to "\".
- Change the end-of-line markers to the DOS/Windows version.
Open a terminal and cd to the directory you saved the copy of your playlist in, then type the following:
unix2dos playlist-copy.m3u
- Plug in your Clip Sport player. Make sure it is mounted properly (ie. not as a read-only device) before proceeding.
- Copy the playlist you just converted in step 6 to the "Playlists" folder, and your music to the "Music" folder.
