Random problem in playlists

I am really sorry you are having so much trouble with playlists. Especially since you are making a serious effort.

 I have a few simple suggestions for you to try.  

1.Try using a very simple text editor app on your Mac. Save the file as .m3u.  Save the file as a simple text file; not rich text.

  1. Try creating a simple m3u file based on 3 audio files saved in a new Subfolder under the main Music folder.

    Save this new text file in the new Subfolder with the filename:   Simple.m3u

       Music\Subfolder\audio file1.mp3

       Music\Subfolder\audio file2.mp3

       Music\Subfolder\audio file1.mp3

       Music\Subfolder\audio file3.mp3

       Music\Subfolder\audio file2.mp3

  1. I hope you are able to create this simple m3u file and it works in your Clip Sport.

  2. The best way to create and enjoy playlists on a Clip Sport is with a software method. My current favorite method  is to use a batch command. 

  3. When you want to introduce special repeat and play patterns, this is a bigger challenge.
