Location of Playlists created in MyMedia Interface

[Wanderer189]

I have made some playlists within MM. I would like to make a copy of a couple them, rename them to something else so I can edit them.

For example, I have a playlist called "Classic Rock". It contain close to 5000 songs. I would like to be able to make a copy of it, maybe rename it to "Classic Rock 2", then via the MM interface, remove a couple hundred songs. This would be much faster to remove a couple hundred rather than than trying to create a 2nd playlist from scratch. Any help with their location on the hard drive would be much appreciated.

I can maybe only offer help if you're using Linux.

The filename on my system is ServerPlaylists.xml, so maybe you can search for that, but it's not very human-friendly since all tracks are put in using a unique ID.

Here's a testplaylist I created with a 12 track album in:

@Lozzy_uk: Much appreciated. I see what you mean about not user friendly. hats more than I had though. Have to think about this one. Ya can't edit the imported lists via MM, so this is going to be a major pain it looks like.

You can export the playlist as a standard MU3 file. Then edit the exported file in a text editor, or any playlist editing application of your choice, then import the edited file back into MyMedia.
