I have just installed a Readynas Duo and squeezebox boom and transferred all my music and playlists to the readynas. I have also updated the readynas with version 7.4.1 ( using downloaded file Squeezeboxserver_7.4.1-sparc-readynas.bin) and updated the firmware on the squeezebox so I assume I am pretty much up to date. None of the 100 or so playlists I transferred work at all. They all appear empty in the squeezebox server but are OK when I view them on the readynas drive. I have resolved 2 different problems which has resolved most of my issues with empty playlists.
1. The transferred playlist contains paths to music on my windows hard drive for example D:\My Documents\My Music\Buddy Holly\The Legendary Buddy Holly\11 - (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care.mp3 which I first had to change to \Media\Music\Buddy Holly\The Legendary Buddy Holly\11 - (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care.mp3 so it referenced the music file on the readynas. This did not resolve the problem on its own 2. I then created an exact copy of a failing playlist using squeezebox server and compared the two playlists and found that the slashes were the other way round. So I ammended the entry to now show /Media/Music/Buddy Holly/The Legendary Buddy Holly/11 - (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care.mp3 and the problem was solved. I can now scan my playlists, see them within squeezecenter server AND see and play them on my squeezebox boom I can only think that the format change with the slash is required as the squeezebox sever running on my readynas drive is Linux. but thats a guess -- pilkinb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pilkinb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35560 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71823 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
