Version: 2.4.1 (using KDE 4.6.4) OS: Linux As reported e.g. in bug 250689: Once again the "export playlist" functionality always exports absolute paths and ignores the settings of the file dialogue. Using the current git-snapshot from openSUSE playground (2.4.1.60git.1308381860-12.1) Reproducible: Didn't try
I have to correct myself: Amarok seems to react to the "relative paths" switch, however, with a very strange way of interpretating "relative". My music drawer is /home/users/Musik The playlists are located toplevel in this folder. Amarok makes strange playlist entries like ../users/Musik/./Compilations/albumtitle/songtitle.mp3 which it itself cannot load anymore.
Downgrading to the stable 2.4.1 version the "relative paths" feature gives entries like ../users/Musik/Compilations/albumtitle/songtitle.mp3 Also in this case not even Amarok itself can use the playlist, which makes the "export with relative paths" functionality completely unusable.

The relative check is initialized using the configured setting.
