Reverse playlists

Opened this issue · 3 comments

Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with reversing playlists using the Spotify to YouTube Music transfer program. The problem arises when trying to input a command in the CLI (Command Line Interface). If I open a new command prompt window, the command doesn't work. Additionally, there is no playlist reverse button in the application interface.

Could someone please advise on how exactly to reverse a playlist? Where should I enter the command?

Thank you in advance for your help!

This doesn't help in the program we've downloaded here, but you're able to reverse the order in the YT Music app on a mobile device.

Open YTM, go to your playlists, open a playlist, tap the pencil icon, change from "Manual" to whichever arranges the playlist the way you want it - for me, "Newest first" seemed to flip it to the correct order - and you're done.

You can also do this in-browser, but currently not in the YTM Web App - you can open your playlists in youtube.com (NOT music.youtube.com) and do the same rearrangement.

Hope that helps, and sorry I didn't solve your problem directly.

It might be easier if you simply create a new playlist in the right order
Open CMD and paste this code:

s2yt_copy_playlist SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID "+NEW_YT_PLAYLIST_NAME" --no-reverse-playlist

Before you hit enter change SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID and NEW_YT_PLAYLIST_NAME accordingly:

You can get SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID by either opening Spotify in your browser and copying from the playlist's link
E.g.: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID
Or from the GUI version of the program using the "List playlists" option. The ID is that big number before the playlist's name.

NEW_YT_PLAYLIST_NAME is any name of your preference. E.g.: My fav '00 Rock
It's important to keep the + sign as well as double quotes! > "+My fav '00 Rock"
E.g.:
s2yt_copy_playlist 37i9dQZF1DX3oM43CtKnRV "+My fav '00 Rock" --no-reverse-playlist
