- After this, right-click and select the “Remove Selected” option.

How to sort the Playlist?
When you do the sorting of Playlist, the right-click menu is one of the most usable options for you. Simply right-click and choose the “Sub-menu Sort By” option.
We can sort the Playlist by ascending and descending order using the following options:

How to saving and exporting the Playlist
After you have the setup list along with your choice’s songs and clips, and all is sorted out, you can now export the files and save these for playback in future. You can do this by right-clicking on the “Sub-Menu”, save Playlist to the file.
After doing this, a dialog will be displayed, which will allow you to open and save the existing media files list in the format of *.xspf, *.m3u, *.m3u8, and *.html. Here, the HTML file format is just to generate the list in a nice way which Nebula Media Player cannot open or playback. So, the other options are good for you to use instead of HTML.
