Question or Issue
Hello everyone I am having issues I am trying to use Dropbox with m3u4u. Everything works fine when setting Dropbox up in m3u4u except when I get to the section to enter the access code. The code it generates is way over 256 characters. What should I do?

Hey Jim1958, welcome to our Community!
Based on all the info I've gathered so far, it looks like this issue isn't coming directly from us, but from m3u4u. Are you able to access our website and see your files without an issue?
You mentioned an "access code" can you let me know more about this? What steps do you follow on your end before this happens?
If you have any screenshots feel free to send them over in order for me to have a visual too.
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
No I am unable to create any playlist until I set up Dropbox first.

I just registered on m3u4u and was able to connect to an app that I created in my Dropbox App Console without a problem. The access code that was generated was valid and was accepted when I entered it into m3u4u.
Make sure you're following these steps, and be mindful that the access code is only valid for 15 seconds. You need to enter it into m3u4u very quickly or you'll have to start over again.
If you continue to have a problem you'll need to contact the m3u4u developers. They appear to have a Wiki and a Discord server for assistance.
This is a third-party website that has no official integration with Dropbox, and Dropbox cannot provide support for it. Only the m3u4u developers will be able to assist further.
