I installed the media.module to a 4.6 site, as per the instructions.

  • I have the contents in a directory in modules.
  • I have getid3 in the modules/media directory.
  • I updated the database.
  • I patched the upload module.
  • I enabled the module.
  • I enabled permissions.
  • I set the getid3 path and enabled everything (just in case) in admin/settings/media.
  • I uploaded several MP3 files with an .mp3 extension

When I created a new playlist, nothing is showing up under add/change content. What do I need to do to fill that in?

This is a documentation error. The workflow is misleading, and the idea is that you should add media files (from the media table) to your playlist (which is stored in the session) and then save the playlist as a node. Please note that this module is officially unsupported and deprecated.

Okay.

I found the audio [0] and playlist [1] modules and started using them, instead.

I saw your post in the dev mail list looking for a maintainer for it and the FBU modules. I seriously considered jumping on it, and then I came to my senses. :^) I don't have time as it is for the things I've overtasked myself with.

Good news: Richard Orris has agreed to become the new maintainer, so expect great things in the future =)
