All my FLAC files are in my QNAP NAS. SBS is also installed in my NAS. Winamp was mentioned but can I use Winamp installed on my PC and point to my NAS music folder and create the playlist? do I then save the playlist in the SBS Playlist folder?
Playlists (Winamp and any other) I think MUST be saved within in the same master folder as the related music. I have no idea what QNAP and NAS are. However, I can tell you what I have that works..... Assume that you have a main folder called "MUSIC". MUSIC can have subfolders like "JOHNNYCASH", "CLASSICAL", etc. These subfolders can have their own subfolders like: "ALBUMONE", "ALBUMTWO", etc. Whether you can go down more levels, I do not know but I think five total sublevels is the limit. In any event, I store a playlist for an album in that album's folder. Any playlist that refers to more than one album goes in the main MUSIC folder. In any event this works fine. I am not sure, however, if playlists can refer to folders above then in the folder Hierarchy. The easiest way to find out is to create some short trial playlists. Since Winamp itself can play flac files, this is easy to test. Thus, you can test any playlist that you create within Winamp. If it works in Winamp (and is located in your main Slimserver music file), it should work in Slimserver. -- dickmc Dick _________________________________________________ Squeezebox2 on wired LAN: -Hosfelt linear pwr and DAC audio out mods - Sansui QRX9001 quad: -Resoldered and recaped incl BlackGates in audio path- Onkyo T-4711 tuner Sherwood Newcastle CD-980T Four Axiom M22ti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dickmc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4025 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87369 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
