[Q] Seeking advice on managing music playlist

You know, one of the biggest reluctancies I have about flashing a new rom is my music playlist. I only have about 300 or so song however I have a mix of various things including Rock , country, Christmas, and kids stuff for my toddler. So, I use Titanium backup to backup my apps and so forth and it works well with the exception of playlist.
Whether I am using the stock player or the MIUI app or whatever. Just doesn't work. So, I am wondering if you guys may have tips or tricks on another backup that handles playlist better or perhaps another way of managing plalist all together. If I knew where the music app I am using stored the playlist maybe I could manually back it up to the SD card and put it back upon reflash or something similiar. I do not like cloud storage as I do not have unlimited data. So, what are your thoughts?

Maybe there is a music app that would sync just the playlist information online....

Power Amp has the ability to export/import playlists to SD. It's also one of the best music players available.

Need Help with Stock Music Player

Hi Forum,
I got a stock music play that cannot see my mp3. I got an old version of ClearRom. I did a factory reset and configured it for my wife. But I now having a problem with the stock player. I cannot see the mp3. First I got it on the SD card, then I moved the mp3 on to the internal sd, into the Music folder. Still, the music player cannot not see the mp3.
Thank you for looking,

I had this problem before what i did is move everything back to ext sd and make sure them in a folder just called Music and after get a app called player pro, when you have it go to settings music library and hit refresh media store and there it will read all your music this is the way i do it and it works without flashing anything or even root just an app

[Q] Transfer Music Player playlists to doubletwist?

So, I made a bunch of playlists in the default music player on my S4 mini and I was wondering if there was a way to directly transfer them to the doubletwist music app to save time recreating them from scratch.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Cheers

Problems with importing music playlists on Lollipop

Anyone else having problems importing music playlists ("m3u" or "pls" files) on Android 5.0.1 (Lollipop)?
Up until I upgraded to Lollipop, I didn't have too much trouble getting my music playlists on my phone. Most of the time, the playlists that I had created would just remain on my phone after an update. On rare occurrences when they didn't (ie: wiping the phone and switching to a new ROM), I would just copy the "m3u" or "pls" playlist files into the music folder of my SDCard, reboot the phone, and the Android OS would scan the SDCard during boot process and generate the music playlists in the internal format. This has not worked on Lollipop.
I have never understood why none of the music player apps on Android include a function to import and export playlists ("m3u" or "pls" files). This always seemed like a huge over-sight to me. For people like me that have hundreds of music files, and have created music playlists that we like to listen to over and over again, the idea of having to re-create them on a new device (or a new version of an OS) is a huge hassle!
I have found a music playlist editor app on Android. This app allows me to edit/modify them, but does not provide a way to import them into the Android OSs internal format (so that they can be played in other apps like Google Play Music), or a way to export the internal playlists.
Anyone know of anything that would help???

You have to convert the playlist to .m3u save it in a folder name playlist then Reboot the phone and it should show up.
Note:
When you reboot and check the playlist give it a few seconds for the media player to recognize the playlist. Hope this helps. Worked for me on my Galaxy Edge.

Palylist Transfer?

This is probably a silly question, but does anyone know a good way to transfer playlists from S5 to S7 Active? When I got my new phone everything seemed to transfer ok EXCEPT the playlists. The music moved over (on the SD card), contacts, etc., but not the playlists that took me so long to build. Thanks in advance for any info.

Your music playlist? depends on the music app youre using. Some apps save the playlist in a .M3U file, like your mp3 playlist on your PC, so use a good file browser like solid browser, es browser, etc. and search for *.m3u and copy that to your SD card or otg pen drive.
Your music app, might have a save-as menu item, should allow to save the current playlist to SD card.
