Change the Playlists path - FatMax1492 - 2024-08-31
I would like to change the path for my playlists from "K:\Media\Music\Playlists -- For Navidrome" to "K:\Media\Music\.Playlists"
How do I do this? I can't seem to find an option for it in the settings

You currently can't.
You have to add the new path to a library, scan it, then recreate the playlist.
You can also try manually editing the playlist files located in the config folder.

When I move an m3u file to a different folder it just disappears from my library.
I also tried editing the folder name itself and then all playlists went away.
How do I "add the new path to a library" ?

There is no "playlists" in the library menu on the dashboard. Just Shows, Movies, and Music.
There's a path inside the "music" library. I linked the path for playlists there and that didn't work.

I assume I have to delete the music library altogether and recreate it with the new path I want for playlists, however I'm kinda scared it'll just break playlists entirely.
Is this what you're pointing at?

You just need to make the new content accesible to any library, then add the items from those libraries to a playlist.

I'm using it a little differently I think.
I use MusicBee as my main music provider and export my m3u files through a batch script to the folder Jellyfin uses.
I guess I should migrate to 100% Jellyfin at some point lol

Ok I found the system.xml file but there I don't see any references to playlists.
Which file do I need to change it? And what's its path?
