Ubuntu – Cannot export radio stations as a playlist

playlistspluginsrhythmbox

I have installed the playlist export plugin from the ppa:fossfreedom/rhythmbox-plugins but I can not import or export lists.

I configured the folder where I want to export the lists from add-ons but then I look at the folder and the list of stations does not appear any playlist or radio stations appear in the folder. Any ideas?

I have configured the plugin to export the list of stations that I added to the player but this does not perform the function.

I followed the following instructions for the installation of the plugins

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fossfreedom/rhythmbox-plugins
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install rhythmbox-plugin-complete

The export playlist plugin only deals with Tracks (Songs) - it is used to save to a file all Tracks in a manually created Playlist that you have created.

The plugin does not export radio-stations.

We do have another question here on AU about how to export radiostations. The output from the script described in this answer will need to be modified slightly to create a .m3u format playlist if that is what you are after.
