Move playlists between users - .minuteman76 - 2025-09-16
I have two users on my server, one of them has about 20 playlists, the other has about 10. I would like to consolidate this so that all of the playlists belong to a single user.
I have tried editing the playlist.xml files though the terminal and changing the <OwnerUserID> tag, however when I do this and then scan all libraries, the OwnerUserID just reverts back to what it was originally, and the playlist still belongs to the original user. I must be missing some critical step to get the system to update the actual database but I can't figure out what that is.
