I have finally figured out how to save and access playlist(*.m3u) files in internal and external storage in R6ProII. I will share the steps soon. I wish Hiby should have posted a basic user manual for such basic requirement.
Here are the steps to import playlist(*.m3u) saved in the external SD card from windows pc:
1. Create a folder named:
HiBymusic in your external sd card if it is not there already.
2. Open the folder HiBymusic and create two folders and name them as “
Re” and “
Ab”. Re stands for relative and Ab stands for absolute
3. The folder “Re” will be used to save your playlist in relative format free from any external ID card device ID in the playlist path.
Example of an entry in the playlist:
../../../nameofthealbumfolder/nameofthesong.extn
../../../Myalbum1/Mysong1.FLAC
4. you can use the folder: “Ab” to save your playlist in absolute path format.
Example:
/storage/SdcarddeviceID/nameofthealbumfolder/nameofthesong.extn
/storage/9C33-6BBD/Myalbum1/Mysong1.FLAC
you can find the device id of your sd card from storage settings.
5. Now open the HiBymusic app and scroll to playlists. Click on import playlists and then choose your external sd card and the select the file from inside your HiBymusic folder in your sd card.
Scenario 2 to backup your playlists created using HiBymusic app.
1. scroll to your playlists
2. now long press the playlist you want to save in your external SD card.
3. Select the option of backup playlist to your external or internal storage.
4. select if you wish to save it either absolute or relative path format.
5. your playlist will now be backed up in the “Ab” or “Re” sub-folders under HibyMusic folder depending on your format selection.
Hope it helps.
