Change the delimiter "\" between folders to "/"

Support
1

Is there an easy way to use "/" instead of "\" as delimiter between foldernames in playlists, because "\" is not recogniced by VLC on an Android system?

So: folder1/folder2/folder3/audio.mp3

Instead of: folder1\folder2\folder3\audio.mp3

The current playlist generator takes care of the standards for the current file system.
In the function itself, you cannot set a different separator - the path is returned like that from the OS.
But as playlists are plain text files, you could easily open the playlist in a text editor and replace the \ with /.

Thank you very, much but this I already do.

But if there are special Charakters live äöüß or also apostrophs in the filename, these are occasionally changed too.

Best Regards

I think it depends on whether you create an ascii encoded playlist or an UTF-8 encoded one.
The latter should not lead to any changes, while the ASCII characterset does not include special local characters like the Umlauts.
A "normal" Windows filename will allow umlauts.
These are invalid characters for the ascii file names - the backslash and the slash is not.

These changes are made by the editor (NOTEPAD) I used. Not by MP3TAG.

You could create - as an alternative - an export script that replaces the questionable characters.
But probably the workflow with the editor is easier.
