delete playlist

[NeZZeR]

Hello bumping this thread.

I have m3u's and other scattered all over my albums since that is how they are delivered and I really dont want to remove them.
When trying to delete a playlist i get error that jellyfin does not have write access which is strange since it should. However why would it need it to remove data inside it's own SQL - makes no sense to me. Pretty sure it tries to remove the m3u's.

Only workaround I found is to disable automatic rescans and running deletes in the SQL like so:
DELETE FROM TypedBaseItems
WHERE type = 'MediaBrowser.Controller.Playlists.Playlist'
AND path NOT LIKE '%AppDataPath%\playlists\%'
AND (
path LIKE '%.m3u' OR
path LIKE '%.pls' OR
path LIKE '%.wpl' OR
path LIKE '%.asx'
);

Excluding under Appdatapath to not kill my own playlists created in Jellyfin.

Could someone shed a light on this ,seems like a gigantic oversight. Should be a simple "Do not import playlists" checkbox in the library settings.

A possible fix is this plugin https://github.com/fdett/jellyfin-ignore but could not get it to work in the latest version of Jellyfin.

Plz fix
