![]() Now, unplug the USB cable, allow Android to complete the scan of the sd card, then in applications, open Meridian, select Playlists icon, then browse to the sd card, find the playlist you created and click on it. Note: the path in your playlist has to match the actual path on your sd card. Plug in USB cable, choose mount, and then when prompted by your PC, choose open with folder view. now just copy the folder with your playlist and the subfolder(s) with your music to your SD card. Otherwise, Meridian will skip over any files with characters it can't understand. Optional step, if you have any non-ascii characters, you will need to open the file in Notepad and save as type. Next, save as plain text (not as MS Word format) Scroll to the bottom of the file and you will find one extra path on the very last line of the file. Use the Find and Replace option, and find ^p (new line) and replace it with ^p /sd/music/artist/ press "replace all."

If the file does not exist, it will be created. **the > redirects the output into a file called myplaylist.m3u (in the parent directory). *dir command will list the contents of the directory, Open command prompt, navigate to music folder then to the sub folder with the songs you want to add to your playlist. Here's how I automatically created a playlist for a large folder of songs: Each line in an m3u is a reference to a song: ![]() (if you already have it organized, great, just make sure you don't copy more files than you have disk space on the phone) On your computer (I'm using PC) create a folder called music, then sub folders for different artists, genres, etc. Here's the step by step method to copy files and create a playlist on the SD card of your android phone: Clicking on a playlist will begin to play your music. ![]() The key is to open Meridian, then click on playlists, and your M3U playlists will appear.
