Hi Siduhe, My D: drive is a local drive. I've tried relative paths and absolute ones... it didn't matter. The M3U that the SlimServer's GUI created used absolute paths, but it also used strange formatting which didn't seem to include carriage returns... the entire M3U wraps, which Winamp's or Media Player's M3U's look neat and orderly. Songs names are cut short due to a 30 char limit, but the filenames are intact.
My server setting to find music is "D:\Backup\My Music". It scans, finds and plays music just fine. Believe me... I've manually tried several different ways of formatting the path statement in the hopes that SlimServer finds the contents of my M3U's... all of which have been fruitless, with the exception for the weirdly formatted Slim GUI-created M3U. Thanks for your post! Siduhe;235022 Wrote: > vnvjeep, In my experience, Slimserver's handling of playlists on > external drives or partitions can be patchy.
