sync playlists from android to windows

[Cogit8r]

I'm interested in this thread because I want to understand, in a general way, how exactly syncing playlists device>server works.

The playlist that is created on the device by the MM server surely 'knows' only a 'filename', which might not even match the filename of the corresponding piece of media on the server's storage – for example, both the name and the extension might differ from the 'source' filename. Contrariwise, the playlist on the server is presumably a list of records from the database; there might conceivably be instances of more than one record having the exact same filename (the files being stored in different locations of the storage filesystem). So, how does a device playlist sync back to the server, exactly? The filename in the device playlist might match several files on the server storage or it might match none.

Such considerations suggest that the OP is going to be disappointed: a playlist on the device cannot be synced or exported back to the server because the information it contains is fundamentally different to that in the corresponding playlist that once existed on the server.

Further food for thought: what happens if a track is added to a playlist on the device when that track has been manually inserted into the device's filesystem (albeit in the correct location) rather than being there due to sync from the MM server?

I've found a workaround.
In MMA:
Open your playlist you want synced.
Select all the tracks.
Add them to a new playlist.
Delete the original playlist.
Rename the new playlist to the old name.
Then sync!!
