The "problem" with the playlists is actually quite simple. Let me detail
it for you:
LMS:
- Lives on Win10 box
- Sees music files on a mapped drive. This is considered a "local"
file, as in "This disc is physically attached to this PC". The way in
which it's attached is transparent/invisible
MusicBee:
- Lives on another Win10 box
- Modifies/creates playlists with UNC path (\\server-ip\share). This
is considered a "remote" file, as in "we don't have a physical
connection to this disc"
Scanner:
- Starts of with the music files it considers as "local", being those
on the mapped drive
- Then it finds the playlists, where music files are being pointed to
as "remote" files
- It tries to access those files, obviously succeeds, and adds them to
the results
This has nothing to do with LMS in itself, it's really an OS thing.
Mapped drives are considered local resources, whereas giving a UNC path
is always considered as being remote. To solve this issue, and still be
able to scan your playlists, just replace the "mapped drive" reference
in LMS with the same UNC-path you find in your playlists.
