Portable Devices / Re: Reverse sync prepending "playlists" to all list names

Thanks for weighing in, I really appreciate it! I can't believe my version was that out of date, whoops. 

Unfortunately neither seems to have fixed the issue... I'm now on 3.5.8150, but no luck. When I try changing the playlists folder to just "playlists\", like you suggested, it has the same result as putting it in "Music\playlists\": it doesn't propagate changes from my phone back to my computer, and instead it overwrites the modified playlist on the phone with the old one from the computer.

Portable Devices / Re: Wifi android device synching

Could I get a clarification on reverse synching? If I...
1. create a playlist in musicbee
2. modify the playlist on-device in goneMAD
3. sync again with reverse sync enabled for playlists
...should I expect the changes to the playlist to show up in musicbee? Or is it the intended behavior for the goneMAD playlist's changes to get erased?

Thanks for everything you've done on this, Steven!

Portable Devices / Reverse sync prepending "playlists" to all list names

I'm trying my darnedest to get reverse playlist sync working nicely, but I'm running into a problem I just can't figure out. If I do the following steps:

1. make a playlist in musicbee desktop (in this example, playlist name = Banjo-Kazooie)
2. do a wired sync to my phone
3. wifi sync again
...then my desktop list of playlists will now show not only the Banjo-Kazooie playlist, but also an empty one called playlistsBanjo-Kazooie! If I wifi sync again, I start getting playlistsplaylistsBanjo-Kazooie and so on.

Here's a screen of the config settings for my device:


And possibly helpful info on what I'm using:
- musicbee 3.3.7115
- google pixel pro 6 running Android version 12
- gone mad 3.2.8 (unlocked / full version)

Any help would be hugely appreciated!


EDIT: Found one more data point. When I look in the phone's gmmp\ folder (not in gmmp\playlists\), I see playlistsBanjo-Kazooie.m3u. But if I delete that and then request a sync preview from the wifi sync app, it reappears. Seems like it's getting spawned by the sync scanning itself? =\

I also find that if I change "playlists path" in the device config options to Music\Playlists\ (which I recall was the default), it stop creating the junk playlists. But, it doesn't sync back updates to the Banjo-Kazooie playlist either. (If I add a song to the playlist from within GoneMAD, then do a wifi sync, the playlist in musicbee desktop doesn't have the new song.) In fact, attempting to reverse sync removes the new song from goneMAD.
