iPod: Copy Playlist To Local Media
 

Alright folks... This is driving me nuts.

I have a 5th Gen iPod, and Winamp 5.34. I use my iPod on multiple computers, as well as Winamp.

I've created some playlists that now exists on the iPod, but not in Winamp. The PC has all of the files that are in these playlists. They're the same file copies too.

I want to copy the playlists without their media to the Local Media Library, but I want it to be smart enough to say, "Hey, that file is already in the Media Library, I don't need it."

If I set the CD Ripping directory to the same path as the Watched Folder for my media, and set the naming convention the same, it copies everything, but overwrites existing files.

In other words, I want the playlist to be local, but using the already existing Media Library copies, and not have to recopy from the iPod to the PC.

Any way to pull this off? Some other program I could use?

As far as I know, you need to use the Sync feature

Prefs > Media Library > Portables > iPod > Sync:
Update selected playlist(s) only

Once the iPod/playlist/ml are sync'd, then it won't overwrite any files if they already exist.
