You moved your music or audio library around and now your playlists don't work?
Playlist Relinker is a small, cross-platform Python GUI that rescans your .m3u, .m3u8, or Foobar2000 .fplite playlists, groups the tracks by their drive/folder “root,” and lets you change those roots once—no regex wrangling or text editors required.
- Designed around Foobar2000 conventions, yet completely agnostic: it happily fixes any plain-text playlist.
- Handles bulk drive-letter moves, merged or renamed top-level music folders, and even mass drive-letter swaps across hundreds of playlists in seconds—always keeping a backup of the original.
