I stated that I did that earlier in this thread: Ok, thanks. I've opened the m3u files using TextPad. The path to the tracks within the Playlists is different than where the Playlists are now located. Apparently I didn't copy them back to the same place. HOWEVER, I OPENED A COUPLE OF THE M3U

Odd. Seems that new playlists are using url links instead of file locations. Not sure. I've not seen that. Hopefully someone else can chime in. *Home:* VBA 4TB (2.5)>LMS 7.9.2>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4)>LMS 7.9.1>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio
