I remember seeing a similar post recently, but now can't find it. The normal problem with playlists is that the path isn't consistent between the way that the software sees your library and the way the playlist sees the library. As a basic check - can you locate a file which is in the lossless folder and should appear in a playlist and drill down using the Squeezecenter web interface until you see the track details including file path. Is this path exactly the same as the file path that is in the playlist to the same track (just open up the playlist in a text editor like Editpad or Notepad). The squeezecenter software needs absolute not relative paths. If the file paths aren't the same - that's your problem. You need to make the playlist reflect the file path to your track that the Squeezecenter library expects. Find/replace will do the job but you may need to change the path you're using in MediaMonkey for new playlists. If the paths are the same, then it's possible the playlist scanning isn't following the shortcut for some reason - if so it sounds like a bug. Can you look in scanner.log and do a playlist only rescan? The error messages should give an idea what the problem is. -- Siduhe Who am I on 'LAST.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/siduhe)?
