    This article describes the backup of playlists in BluOS:

    https://support.bluos.net/hc/en-us/articles/360000479488-How-to-create-BluOS-playlists-backup-and-restore-them

    However backing up on a pc is not supported.

    Has this capability been removed?
    The link above doesn't work at all.
    Also, with server mode disabled, I still cannot find the Backup Playlists option under Settings -> Music Library.
    (Either in the iOS or Windows versions - tried both)
    I know I've done this before (I still have the USB stick), but the option appears to have moved somewhere where I can't find it or gone away completely.

    Also:  Once I've backed up a playlist, is there any way to view/edit it outside BluOS, or is it a proprietary format?
    (The Playlist editing capability in the NODE is pretty primitive & aggravating.)

    The situation on playlist backup is confusing to me.

    Some time ago, Tony stated that backup on windows was no longer supported due to deprecated software.

    Yet in the knowledge base I find this article (updated?): https://support.bluos.net/hc/en-us/articles/21711639598615-Why-can-t-I-backup-or-restore-BluOS-Playlists-to-from-a-USB

    I will need to do some testing to find out what is what.

    Ooops...

    Alain, I stand by my comment here...  unfortunately...

    Sorry for the confusion, I will have our in-house Tech Writer review the KB you mentioned, we must have missed that one during our last upgrade cycle/KB review.

    Ich habe das gleiche Problem: Seit dem letzten Update ist die Funktion „Wiedergabelisten sichern“ als Menüpunkt verschwunden. Laut dem Support wird daran gearbeitet….

    Thomas, yes Bluesound said it was removed from the desktop app as it was not working.
