  3. Copy radio.txt to the MicroSD(TF) card root directory. If there are already some radio stations, you can append the downloaded radio.txt content to the original radio.txt)

Import and export playlist​

The player takes a b c as the root directory of the disk, for example:

  • a:\\Indicates the root directory of the first MicroSD card (TF card);
  • b:\\Indicates the root directory of the second MicroSD card (TF card);
  • c:\\Represents the root directory of the OTG;

The imported and exported m3u files are stored on MicroSD card (TF card)playlist_dataUnder the folder.

m3u parsing processing logic​

The player takes a b c as the root directory of the disk, for example:

  • a:\\Indicates the root directory of the first MicroSD card (TF card);
  • b:\\Indicates the root directory of the second MicroSD card (TF card);
  • c:\\Represents the root directory of the OTG;

m3u file rules

  • File format supports m3u and m3u8
  • File encoding supports ASCII, Unicode16 large and small end, UTF-8 With BOM, UTF-8 Without BOM, and UTF-8 With BOM is recommended.
  • CUE and ISO tracking is not supported, singles are supported
  • Support relative paths and absolute paths, and relative paths are recommended.
absolute path

Since the player uses a b c as the root directory of the disk, when using an absolute path, it must bea:、b:、c:Such a prefix

For example, an existing m3u file王心凌-爱你.m3u, the song is placed ina:\m3u\hiby\music\, then this m3u file is placed in any position and will be searched during playbacka:\m3u\hiby\music\*The corresponding tracks under this path.

王心凌-爱你.m3uas follows:

a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 心心相印.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 恋爱节奏.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 抱着你哭.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 明天见.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 月光.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 爱你.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 爱的套餐.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 第一次爱的人.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 糖罐子.flac
a:\m3u\hiby\music\王心凌 - 羽毛.flac
relative path

When using the relative path, use the folder where the current m3u file is located as the starting point to find the corresponding songs in the m3u file.

For example, an existing m3u file王心凌-爱你.m3u, the song is placed ina:\m3u\hiby\music\爱你, then only this m3u file is placed ina:\m3u\hiby\music\爱你It can only be found during playbacka:\m3u\hiby\music\爱你The corresponding tracks under this path. Placed in any other location cannot be found correctly.

王心凌-爱你.m3uas follows:

王心凌 - 心心相印.flac
王心凌 - 恋爱节奏.flac
王心凌 - 抱着你哭.flac
王心凌 - 明天见.flac
王心凌 - 月光.flac
