Beep Media Player 0.9.7 on Debian. short description: BMP does not allow to save playlists. problem description: when i use the command button "LIST" from the playlist window (the one showing the "ADD SUB SEL MISC + LIST" buttons) this following popup list comes up: "NEW LIST N LOAD LIST O SAVE LIST S UPDATE VIEW F5" using 'S' gives a dialog to enter a filename. but no matter which filename i choose i get an error box which says "unable to save playlist! unknown file type /dir/file" i'm stumped. it is completely unclear to me what i can do at all here. do i need to create a special file type before i can save a playlist at all? and why? i wonder: since when does anyone have to create file type in any way before a program can *save* its data? anyway, that way you cannot save *any* playlist from bmp. conclusion: saving data from bmp is not possible. and this makes BMP quite useless. :-/ Sven |

The error means that BMP doesn't know which type of playlist you want to save. Saving file as "foo" doesn't work. However, saving "foo.pls" DOES work. Developers should have probably specified the default type for a case like that. RQ |

However, saving "foo.pls" DOES work. ah - you have to use ".pls" as an extension! yep - does work. thanks! :-) > Developers should have probably specified > the default type for a case like that. indeed! now.. how to add this one to the bugzilla thing? anyone?
