Good to hear it. Does this mean that you overcame the problems
mentioned in your previous post?

Yes. I have it currently set up so that when you send STOP, it stops
playing and erases the play list. Whereas when you send PAUSE, it just
stops playing. This is perhaps wrong behaviour; and I could certainly
change it so that STOP and PAUSE have the same effect. But then frankly
I dont see what is the purpose of having separate STOP and PAUSE
commands. Perhaps someone can enlighten me on this??

The way I have it at the moment is that the NEXT command moves to the
end of the current track. And in my case this causes roll over to the
beginning of the next track in the playlist. Is it different for you?

And by analogy the PREV command moves to the beginning of the current
track. But probably thinking about it, it should move to the beginning
of the prior track. What do you think??

I don't think it is possible for a UPnP control point read the play
list. The UPnP specification does not define a "verb" to do this. The
specification sort of assumes that the control point is the one that
creates the playlist, so it has no need to read it back from the
player.
