Just modify the locations at the top of the script (4 in total) and run it in powershell (copy the entire script and paste it into the console).

I may enhance the script to handle the BubbleUPnP zip export as that's how my dad exports his, but I'm not sure yet.

I get some errors when running this although it does produce a relative playlist. After a rescan and then looking at my control point it looks as though my playlist is empty.

Error below:

>> }
