hello again,
OK i think i have it figured out. i don’t understand it fully, but i think i have it to a point where i can replicate it so that no matter what playlists will end up working.
There appears to be a bug (or perhaps someone can offer a better explanation), that disables playlists from synching. The steps in my original howto are correct, you must be in MTP mode and you seem to have to manually create a playlist folder (i don’t believe the case matters because WMP reformats it to "Playlists" anyway.
Once that is created playlists sync without an issue. If, however, you switch back to MSC mode (as i did today), and connect it to a pc, then switch back to MTP, playlists seem to stop working. I'm not sure why, but i tried everything (except waiting for an extended period of time to see if it was a Cinderella type lock), to get them to work again, but nothing did.
So using iriver plus 3 i re-initialized the disk on the device, set it to MTP, hooked it to the pc, created the playlists folder, setup my sync parameters in wmp 11, and bingo, it all just worked. has been ever since. So that process would seem to be a definate way to get playlists working.
