Handle external m3u playlists
Last modified: 2012-01-19 20:21:42 UTC
Requested on IRC: Banshee should be able to handle playing external playlists (m3u). Same use-case as playing files which are not part of the library (in the local queue). UI-wise, it would be nice if m3u playlists would display as child sources of the local queue.
seems to be long fixed? I can open a .m3u playlist and it is added as a child source of the file system queue.
Frank, that's weird, do you really do the same steps written in bug 612515?
*** Bug 612515 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I repeat the steps as following: Scenario A ========== 1. Ensure to have the Banshee Music Player not running and the File System Queue was cleared before the last exit 2. In Nautilus right click on a .m3u playlist outside of the Banshee library and choose open with... banshee media player Result: Banshee Media Player opens and the playlist is added to the File System Queue as new child playlist and Banshee starts playing it Scenario B ========== 1. Have the Banshee Media Player Running, File System Queue cleared 2. In Nautilus right click on a .m3u playlist outside of the Banshee library and choose open with... banshee media player Result: The playlist is added to the File System Queue in Banshee Media Player as new child playlist and Banshee starts playing it Preconditions: ============== In order for this to work, you have to have the File System Queue extension enabled in the Preferences. I could reproduce the "Banshee does nothing" behaviour with the FSQ not enabled!
I closed bug 612515 as INVALID instead of a DUPE of this one because I cannot reproduce it anymore (that is, what Frank says works). Michael, can you provide more info on the issue then?
Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for. Thanks!
