Default Volvo XC90 (MY202) Playlists [Fixed]

After much playing, I can now export my iTunes playlists to a USB stick.

It is attached; simply format a USB stick as FAT32 and name it either "Volvo Music" or "Car Music" [This stops you accidentally overwriting another USB Drive]

And run the attached VBS script - the "status" window is a little Clunky" in VBS but seems to work fine.

If you need to have UNIX separators rather than DOS then you can start it with the switch UNIX. i.e. iTunesPlaylistExportToVolvo5.vbs UNIX

It also works for my wife's Ford Sync3.

You can create playlists in winamp on your pc and sensus recognises them no problem

I was able to get this working in my 2019 S60 using MS-DOS and the directory listing command. The M3U file has to contain a line per music file, no path is required as the playlist sits in the same folder as the referenced files.

Below images are my write-up of the basic process.




If not clear use this link to download the PDF as I don't have rights to attach files to the post: Creating M3U Files In Windows Using MS-DOS.pdf
