Hi @Dakusan

I have come back to your script/.exe because Plex threw away one of my previously imported m3u Playlists.Im getting this error:
PlexPlaylistImporter.exe -p "D:\PlexServer\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases\com.plexapp.plugins.library.db" "D:\7mc\plexplaylistimporter\top 550 songs.m3u" Top550SongsPlex playlist is not already created. Would you like to create it now (y/n)? y
DB Error: no such collation sequence: naturalsort

This is on Windows 10 x64, on the Plex Server console.  The exe worked really hard for about 10 minutes before coming up with the playlist creation question, and then immediately failed with the error.Any ideas on that one?

You guessed it right.  A playlist with 150 remote songs works.  A playlist with 160 remote songs doesn't.

Hi there,I have given Plex a couple of days to run background refresh tasks etc, and it hasn’t helped. 

The two Playlists that I have imported cannot display the track listing - either in Web or PHT views. 
PHT tries to load the view for about 30 seconds and then comes up with an error - which I can't remember the exact wording of at the moment. 

It gave me a black screen a couple of times, which I could 'exit' back to the main Playlist list after it timed out on trying to load the track list. 

It can play the Playlist though.  Just select the Playlist with the arrow keys and then press play and it plays in the order in the original playlist file. 

Of course without being able to enter into the Playlist track listing I can't select Random Play.
Is there anything else I can do to track down what has gone wrong with the imported Playlist? There is obviously something different about it compared to the manually created ones which work fine.

Cheers,

I just tried saving the m3u file as ANSI encoding, and now its getting further.  I get this error at what looks like the end of the process:

C:\7MC\PlexPlaylistImporter>PlexPlaylistImporter.exe  c:\7mc\Top503Songs.m3u Top500Songs "D:\Media3\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases\com.plexapp.plugins.library.db"

Plex playlist is not already created. Would you like to create it now (y/n)? y
DB Error: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'NoneType' and 'int'

Thanks.  I just tried the new version.  I still get this error:

C:\7MC\PlexPlaylistImporter>PlexPlaylistImporter.exe  c:\7mc\Top501Songs.m3u Top500Songs "D:\Media3\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases\com.plexapp.plugins.library.db"

ListImporter 'Winamp playlist': Cannot find file listed in playlist (must be relative to the playlist): ÿþ\ \ D o r i s 4 \ M u s i c \ R O C K \ D a v i d   B o w i e \ Y o u n g  A m e r i c a n s \ 0 8   -   F a m e . m p 3

So I tried re-saving the m3u file as UTF-8 format, and that changed the error to:

ListImporter 'Winamp playlist': Cannot find file listed in playlist (must be relative to the playlist): \\Doris4\Music\ROCK\David Bowie\Young Americans\08 - Fame.mp3

See the weird character before the server name?  Is that the problem?  There is no visable character there.  I tried adding a carraige return, but then the program errored with:

ListImporter 'Winamp playlist': Cannot find file listed in playlist (must be relative to the playlist): 

Make any sense?

Out of curiosity, was that MortScript thing you mentioned previously related to Plex or Python?

Sorry about that.  I mixed up two different sources for Plex Playlist import scripts.  mortscript.exe is used by the other one I am trying to get working at the same time as yours.  But that is failing as well becuase mortscript.exe wont run on my Windows 7 32-bit computer.

I am running the script on the Plex Media Server computer (Windows 7).
The media in question is all in the PMS library, but it is present on a different server.

When I run your script I get:

C:\7MC>plexplaylistimporter "top 501 songs.m3u" "Top500Rock" "D:\Media3\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server"
ListImporter 'Winamp playlist': Cannot find file listed in playlist (must be relative to the playlist): ÿþ\ \ D o r i s 4 \ M u s i c \
 R O C K \ D a v i d   B o w i e \ Y o u n g   A m e r i c a n s \ 0 8   -   F a m e . m p 3

Does that command line and subsequent output make sense to you?
