Softpedia Editor's Review for Playlist Creator
|
Creates playlists quickly and easily. Can read tag data. Supports any file type.
Written by Elena Opris on November 26th, 2012
Playlist Creator is a tool that lets you build playlists for media players which support the PLS and M3U formats.
The user interface is standard - it may even seem dull for some users. But that's because Playlist Creator is oriented towards functionality and not impressive graphics.
All you have to do is add the audio or video files (drag and drop is supported), select the output directory, enter a name, select the format type, and create your playlist. The task takes only a few seconds, and the software makes a sound to alert you when it has completed the job.
Additionally, you can insert another playlist into the new one, place the files in the order you want them to be displayed, remove selected or all items, but you can also configure Playlist Creator.
You can select your preferred language (English or German), show hidden messages, reset settings, enable the tool to automatically check for newer versions each week, disable sound when a playlist has been successfully created, specify where new playlist entries are inserted into the list, write extended information, configure title format, but you can also choose the file types that will be recognized by Playlist Creator.
The application uses a small amount of system resources, and it is extremely simple to learn by all users. Without a doubt, this type of software is welcomed by everyone. Playlist Creator offers a simple solution for managing the way you listen to music.
