When you expose the contents of the 4.06 list files, there are no obvious links to a file location. The file references the BookID. I don't think the list files care where the files are located, it simply calls the bookID from the DB, the DB knows where the file is. I have changed file locations in 4.06 and did not reload the list, list still worked.
Laddie, your original post did say that your Playlists located the songs "by Book ID" and not by the file path..... that's what I was asking about, because in my experience Hoster follows the "file path" to locate the files that are in a Playlist. So, when you said to "view" them in HTML, I wondered how that would help solve what Joe & I are asking - i.e. how to get Hoster to find the songs in a saved playlist without having to re-enter them (after we moved those songs) Am I missing something???
