Dynamic Playlist doesn't work on (as you might expect) my favorite standard playlist. When this particular 1600 track playlist is picked from the DPL list, it just stares back at me until it finally just hangs the controllers. Looking at and listening to the ReadyNAS Duo, I see it working hard at something - green lights a-blinking, but at the controller end (Touch and Duet) is a message saying it can't connect to the ReadyNAS. Reboot and pick a smaller standard playlist under DPL, say 50 tracks - no problem.
No need to detail the past hours and days spent working through this - trying to get it working, trying to figure it out - even created a brand new iTunes playlist of the same songs with a different playlist name. Let's go to the present: Last night I did a complete clean reinstall (per Logitech instructions) of all current up-to-date firmware and SBS. Once everything was up and running, I logged on the SBS and in the Plug-In section added Dynamic Playlist and Track Stat and iTunes (+ accepted what was already there). Rebooted SBS and Server. Logged in again. Set the paths for iTunes, picked playlists I wanted from DPL and TS. (I'm only using about 4 or 5 DPL and TS playlists + my standard playlists). All I want is the ability to play my favorite 1600 track playlist quickly without waiting the 10+ minutes for it to load all 1600 tracks under Standard - that's it! That and the ability to rate the track. Rebooted again and watched as the iTunes music library was scanned and added to SBS. 2 hours later (gasp) all was complete. Everything in it's place. Went to a controller, picked Dynamic Playlists, picked my favorite playlist from the list. NOTHING. Hung and timed out (or something). Rebooted, tried it again and again and again. Nothing, nada, zip. Hit a different smaller playlist and it's fine and works almost instantly loading the ten tracks and plays. What am I missing? Or is it that the ReadyNAS Duo just doesn't have the "stuff" to run this configuration. My god, it's so painfully slow and underpowered it seems. Is it possible to have a 1600 track standard playlist play under Dynamic Playlist on a ReadyNAS Duo? Am I missing some settings? I'm at my wits end. Any and all help would be so appreciated. Thank you. -- arebe207 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arebe207's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38132 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82034 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
