Re: [slim] Problem with itunes playlists

This issue has come up quite a few times and I believe the solution which some people use is to make a copy of the active itunes.xml file on the remote NAS or external drive, and point Squeezecenter to that. This is because itunes doesn't appear to support storing playlists on a remote drive.
