Hi,
I'm using Nightingale 1.12.1 on Windows 7 (64 bit) and want to export my playlists to Linux based computers. I have already tried the AddOn "Playlist Export" and a modified version I already used in Songbird.
The problem is that the resulting paths in the export files in Nightingale are completely in lower case letters. That is no problem on Windows, because the title m:\musik\abba\angel eyes.mp3 is found in Windows when it is M:\Musik\Abba\Angel eyes.mp3 in reality. But in linux /media/Musik/musik/abba/angel eyes.mp3 can't be found when it is /media/Musik/Musik/Abba/Angel eyes.mp3 in reality.
I have playlists with several hundreds of entries and the folder structure of my music files is the same in Windows and in Linux.
Exporting in Songbird worked with capital letters but in Nightingale it doesn't. So I compared the modified versions of the playlist export addon, that I'm using in Songbird and Nightingale with Winmerge. But there wasn't any. So there might be a difference in the databases where the results are fetched?
Has anybody a way to get playlists with capital letters? I already tried to import the playlist in VLC (Windows) and export it again. But you only get capital letters if you play every song of the list first...
Best regards,
Stefan
