You can export and import any m3u playlist in Audirvāna. When you create an export of your manual or smart playlist in Audirvāna, the export will be an m3u file by default.


m3u is a plain text file that specifies the locations of one or more media files, such as audio or video sources. It can also include comments, directives, and extended information for media players and streaming services.


If you want to export all your playlists simultaneously, please read this article to know more about it.

Exporting a playlist


Step 1: Open the playlist manager


The playlists manager is always available in the toolbar, wherever you are in Audirvāna:



Note: To keep the manager displayed in Audirvāna, click the icon at the top right of the fitler editor to pin the editor at the left or the right of your view: 


Step 2: Left-click on your playlist


Once you left-clicked your manual or smart playlist, select Export Playlist.



Step 3: Select where you want to export your playlist


By default, we save the playlist image with the export (if it has been changed)(Please read this article to know more about it)


If the folder where your tracks are located will be changed after you do the export, or you would like to put this playlist on a different OS, we recommend you enable the Use relative path option.
