I have to select in the "select tree level to copy"
I see that this option is marked with "!", so the problem is expected. Does the dialog suggest safe option "a\music\..." without "!" mark?

Do you have paths from different volumes in your playlist? If you want to copy starting with "music" subfolder, I think you can try to select and copy files from different drive letters separately.

Hi MVV

no , there are 4 "select tree level to copy" with the "!" mark
and A\music\ without "!" ,but it does give me the error
"Unable to copy file with another base path"
is set to default -> 0
but only 0 works , i wanted 1 to avoid the drive letter but i got lots of errors -> "Unable to copy file with another base path"

yes , i have 4 different partition with 4 different drive letters
I will try to select only 1 partition and start to copy
by the way , i can select all and use the default set ! music\Ben Harper\Albums\..... , and it's the only one that works without any error

but if i select all the file for 1 drive letter at once , the "!" does disapear
thanks MVV

I don't understand how an option with "!" works without errors, it should warn about every file from different base path... And base path in case of "! music\..." option is A:\.
and A\music\ without "!" ,but it does give me the error
If this option shows errors about different base path, there should be a bug probably, because it shouldn't.

no errors if i select all the files of different folders and partition -> destination external drive x:\music\

Code: Select all

! music\Ben Harper\Albums\Ben Harper -1994- Welcome to the Cruel World\01 - The Three of Us.mp3

That's good, and it works as I expected!

That's quite strange...
