Hi

I have multiple XP user accounts setup on my PC. I would like to be able to
share media player playlists between user accounts. Currently, playlists
created in one user account are not visible in other user accounts. Anyone
able to help me on this ?

Thanks

Put them in a shared location. =)

Right. Thanks.
What I've been unable to work out is how to change the playlist to a shared
location. Media Player in each user account works completely independently -
storing its playlists in its own area. I've been unable to find any settings
to change where it reads or stores its playlist directory. Anyone know ?
Sounds simple - maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks

David

You should be able to go File -> New playlist, then File -> Save
playlist as yadda, and save that to a directory that's not associated
with any user profile (eg C:\Playlists for example). Would that work
for you ?
