Can playlist files be edited directly? - ulmariS - 2025-02-17

Hi all, I was trying to edit my music playlists by directly modifying the XML files in /data/jellyfin/data/playlists, but that doesn't seem to do anything. Even deleting them doesn't seem to remove them from the jellyfin library.

Is this a cache issue? Is there a different location where playlists are actually stored?

If it matters, I'm on Linux Mint, using the flatpak versions

Did you run a library scan after modifying the playlist XML?

That worked! Thanks
