Hi there... I'm having trouble playing my .M3U playlists and will all say that the playlist is empty. It's starting to drive me nuts! :) I'm running Squeezebox and SlimServer 6.5.4 on Windows 2003. Here's detailed info:
SlimServer Version: 6.5.4 - 12568 - Windows Server 2003 - EN - cp1252 Perl Version: 5.8.8 MSWin32-x86-multi-thread MySQL Version: 5.0.22-community-nt I have all my music in this kind of structure: D:\Backup\My Music\Artist\Album\Song.mp3 I have .M3U playlists sitting in the root of D:\Backup\My Music. The playlists were all marked with relative paths: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:489,Airwave - Lady Blue (Ambient Mix) Airwave\Airwave - Lady Blue (Ambient Mix).mp3 #EXTINF:461,Airwave Vs Rising Star - Sunspot (Original Mix) Airwave\Airwave vs Rising Star - Sunspot (original mix-promo vinyl).mp3 #EXTINF:486,Angels & Agony - Darkness (Inside Version) angels & agony\Darkness EP [2001]\02_Angels & Agony - Darkness (Inside Version).mp3 #EXTINF:297,Angels & Agony - Darkness (Outside Version) angels & agony\Darkness EP [2001]\01_Angels & Agony - Darkness (Outside Version).mp3 ... Each time I select to play it from the Squeezebox, its saying that the playlist is empty... So I tried putting absolute paths into it.. #EXTM3U #EXTINF:489,Airwave - Lady Blue (Ambient Mix) D:\Backup\My Music\Airwave\Airwave - Lady Blue (Ambient Mix).mp3 #EXTINF:461,Airwave Vs Rising Star - Sunspot (Original Mix) D:\Backup\My Music\Airwave\Airwave vs Rising Star - Sunspot (original mix-promo vinyl).mp3 #EXTINF:486,Angels & Agony - Darkness (Inside Version) D:\Backup\My Music\angels & agony\Darkness EP [2001]\02_Angels & Agony - Darkness (Inside Version).mp3 #EXTINF:297,Angels & Agony - Darkness (Outside Version) D:\Backup\My Music\angels & agony\Darkness EP [2001]\01_Angels & Agony - Darkness (Outside Version).mp3 ... this yielded the same result. The weird thing is, if I create a playlist in the SlimServer UI, it can save and play from the playlist just fine. The only strange thing I noticed was that it seems to cut off part of the song name, almost like there's a character limit (30)?... This one was created in SlimServer's UI: #CURTRACK 0 #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,not unique (club mix by AIBOFO D:\Backup\My Music\Aiboforcen\Psychosomatically Unique DJ EP [2004]\Aiboforcen - 01-not_unique_(club_mix_by_aiboforcen).mp3 #EXTINF:-1,not unique (ROTERSAND rework) D:\Backup\My Music\Aiboforcen\Psychosomatically Unique DJ EP [2004]\Aiboforcen - 03-not_unique_(rotersand_rework).mp3 #EXTINF:-1,not unique (VIRTUAL EMBRACE mi D:\Backup\My Music\Aiboforcen\Psychosomatically Unique DJ EP [2004]\Aiboforcen - 05-not_unique_(virtual_embrace_mix).mp3 I'm not too familiar with logging, but I enabled the playlist flag... This test.m3u has about 5 songs in it with absolute paths. This is what it shows: scanPathOrURL: Finding valid files in: D:\Backup\My Music\test.m3u About to look for files in D:\Backup\My Music\test.m3u For files with extensions in: [(?i-xsm:\.(?:ape|wma|asf|wax|asx|lnk|wpl|shn|wav|wave|mp3|mp2|m3u|pls|xspf|flc|flac|fla|m4a|mov|m4b|mp4|cue|mp+|mpc|ogg|aif|aiff|lnk)$)] Found 1 files in D:\Backup\My Music\test.m3u modifyPlaylistCallback: savecurrsong is 1 modifyPlaylistCallback: finding client playlist for: [00:04:20:07:73:88] modifyPlaylistCallback: calling setTracks() modifyPlaylistCallback: savecurrsong is 0 modifyPlaylistCallback: savecurrsong is 1 modifyPlaylistCallback: finding client playlist for: [00:04:20:07:73:88] modifyPlaylistCallback: calling setTracks() I've tried saving my .M3U's as .PLS files... no difference. If you have any suggestions on what it takes to get my playlists working properly, I would certainly appreciate it! Thank you!
