I posted yesterday that I was having a crazy time trying to get SC7 to
import m3u playlists -- some would appear after a forced scan in the
Playlists section, others would never appear.

I thought at first that it might be a format problem but after closer
inspection of the scanner logs, it seemed to be importing the playlists
ok -- they just never appeared in the Playlists section.

Tonight I had a look at the mysql tables. Sure enough, all of the
content from my playlists appeared in the playlist_tracks table... so
why wouldn't the playlists be displayed?

It turns out that each playlist is represented by one row in the tracks
table -- and the track row content_type should be set to ssp (which I
guess stands for slimserver playlist). And in my case a couple of the
playlists were marked like that. The ones that would never get
displayed had a content_type of m3u. Changing that content_type value
to ssp resulted in SC7 displaying all of my playlists.

So it looks like this may be a bug in scanner.exe.

Regards,

Jonathan
