Making an album playlist isn't hard...
In Windows, for example, (not a general case):
1) take your sd card music library and mount it on your pc;
2) open a command prompt window;
3) navigate to a folder on the sd card containing the tracks for an album;
4) execute "listdir *.flac >> playlist.m3u"
You now have a playlist.
Obviously this only works if your tracks are organised in folders by album. If your albums are not explicitly represented in the folder structure but are only implicit in the track id3 tags then you'd be obliged to use something like MALP to construct an album from the tags and then make a playlist for it. The example is to illustrate how easy it is to make a playlist. It is just a text file.
The trick is to do this automatically for hundreds of albums. That is harder. The other trick is to make playlists that are acceptable to gofigure.
At least, having made a few playlists according to the Chord video, I am now able to put the sd card back in the pc and see what was actually put on it.
If I return to the issue of automating playlist creation for my library then at least I now have a clear idea of what I have to create.
I would be prompted to return to the issue if I think any of the following are true:
1) significant improvements are made to the gofigure's risible music player user interface;
2) I form the view that there is a SQ bump in Bluetooth-only mode (the jury is out);
3) it becomes clear that using WiFi in any form is a problem.
I did notice that, using gofigure to play a playlist, I could start the hugo 2go and then turn off my phone (so the hugo 2go was completely on its own) and it would trundle through the whole playlist. That's already a fairly big deal for me as it shows the hugo 2go can operate totally independently.
It's really not that easy
Like cocaine, if you use it then you know it's harmful but when you're on the high... Oh man
