juan – you are correct. In my case it did not matter (as the usernames were the same on both systems). I modified the post to quote the tilde in order to remove that confusion.

Thanks for this. I always wondered just how expensive method calls were inside a loop as opposed to putting the logic within the loop itself.

this worked for me too, thanks – and yes, the error was confusing!

Thanks very much for not only a solution, but the explanation. It was just what I needed.

ok, … I know this post is …. out of date, but …

I was thinking in people finding help now.

I think that the problem is not the port assigned to ssh, but the use of the characer tilde (this represents home isn’t it?) in the command, when someone enclose the line like “ssh xxxx ….” this “escapes” the character tilde and your command works ok.

Am I wrong?

Thanks in advance.
(Sorry I can’t include the character tilde right now!)

Comment on Sansa e280v2 Regrets & Guide for GNU/Linux by LenW

Well, just after writing my question, I answered most of them:

– use DOS line-endings (CRLF)
– first line is #EXTM3U
– list files one per line
– use DOS directory-separator – \
– one way is to use filenames relative to the directory
containing the playlist
– this works for both onboard files and the microSD
– blank lines and comments starting with # are allowed

so something like this works in either \MUSIC\ folder :
(where ^M represents a carriage return
- as shown with cat -v )

#EXTM3U^M
dir1\dir2a\my-song1.mp3^M
dir1\dir2b\my-song2.mp3^M
dir1\my-song3.mp3^M

So my only remaining question is how do I mix
onboard files with files on the microSD card ?

Thanks for listening,
-Len

Sorry if this question seems like ancient history, but I just
can’t find the answer out there.

You say that I can use EasyTag to write a playlist for the
e280v2 I just bought on eBay. But there are quite a few
options in easytag:
Eg, relative/full-path, DOS-separator, list/info …
Also, are there any headers needed (lines starting with #) ?
And are DOS line-endings required?

Could you please post just small examples of working M3U lists.
Could you please post a few small examples of working
M3U lists: I would love to see one for the onboard files,
one for the microSD card, and one mixed if that is possible.

Thanks so much for the article, but I sure could use just a bit
more help.
