Summary0004182: Location-based Playlists aren't generated (regression)
DescriptionIf the user selects Location > Folder x > Folder y in the AutoSync dialog, and elects to generate playlists based on Artist, Album, Library Playlists, and Location
--> Upon synchronization, playlists are _not_ generated based on the Folder Y selection (though playlists are correctly generated for Artist/Album/Library Playlist selections).

I suspect that this issue may also affect the Burn dialog.

If it's hard to fix, a possible short-term solution would be to remove this option.

This is a little bit more compicated. I saw the code and there is a mismatch in this area. The code is trying to locate .m3u playlists in the selected folder instead of generating the new m3u. This is a survival from an earlier version, nevertheless neither this works fine (the m3u is located right, but not transferred to the device).

For now, it is better to disable the [] Location checkbox. i.e. I've done that in build 1121 (it is invisible for device synch), note: in case of burning the [] Location checkbox remains and works fine.

To the future
1. We might to give users another option to locate and synchronize existing m3u playlists.
2. We might re-enable the [] Location checkbox so that m3u would be generated correctly also in this case (of Location-based Playlists)

I'm sorry--my 'solution' isn't a good one--we already have users using this, and the help is translated into various languages and describes this.

Is there anything that we can do to get it working?

Ok, works right now.
(generated the same way as in case of burning)

Fixed in build 1121.
