    I have searched many ways to do a play list on bb. None of them seem very consistent and some duplicate my music, and roxio just sucks a**. I got tired of searching and this is how im doing it. It works 100% perfect and does not duplicate. It can all be done with wmp and notepad. If someone knows a easier way please let me know, i would love to know. But for now I will use this, i know it works well. it looks harder than it is. takes about 2 min after you have selected the songs you want

    1. Load all the music you want onto your bb memory card BLACKBERRY\BlackBerry\music

    2. Open BLACKBERRY\BlackBerry\music

    3. Select all the songs that you want to be in playlist (ctrl+click)

    4. Right click and add to windows media player list

    5. Name it whatever you want and click save list

    6. Open C:\Users\yournamehere\Music\Playlists (or wherever u store them)

    7. Right click on the playlist that you just made, and open it with notepad or dreamweaver

    8. Delete everything above the first song title. Should look like this:
    <?wpl version="1.0"?>
    <smil>
    <head>
    <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Windows Media Player -- 12.0.7600.16385"/>
    <meta name="ItemCount" content="1"/>
    <title>Untitled playlist</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <seq>

    9. Delete everything below the last song title. Should look like this:
    </seq>
    </body>
    </smil>


    10. You should now have something that looks like this: (make sure if your src letter is not (h) that you change it)
    <media src="H:\BlackBerry\music\Brian McKnight - Back At One.MP3"/>
    <media src="H:\BlackBerry\music\Brooks &amp; Dunn - That&apos;s What She Gets.mp3"/>
    <media src="H:\BlackBerry\music\Brotha Lynch Hung - Deep Down.MP3"/>
    <media src="H:\BlackBerry\music\Brotha Lynch Hung - Gangsta ****.MP3"/>


    11. Now you are gonna go to edit > replace in notepad. In the find field, enter this:
    <media src="H:\BlackBerry\music\

    and in the replace field, enter this:
    file:///SDCard/BlackBerry/music/

    then click replace all.

    12. Make sure that all text is aligned all the way left

    13. Now you are gonna go to edit > replace in notepad. In the find field, enter this:
    &amp;

    and in the replace field, enter this:
    &

    then click replace all

    14. Now you are gonna go to edit > replace in notepad. In the find field, enter this:
    &apos;

    and in the replace field, enter this:


    then click replace all

    15. Now you are gonna go to edit > replace in notepad. In the find field, enter this:
    just hit the spacebar 1 time

    and in the replace field, enter this:
    %20

    then click replace all

    16. Now you are gonna go to edit > replace in notepad. In the find field, enter this:
    "/>

    and in the replace field, enter this:
    just hit spacebar 1 time

    then click replace all

    17. Make sure that everything below the last filename is deleted

    18. Create a playlist on the bb media player, but don’t add any songs to it. And save

    19. Then copy and paste all text from the playlist you just created and overwrite the playlist file on bb.
