No, you can add anything to favorites. Albums, tracks, even tracks from services like MOG and SPOTIFY mixed with your own tracks. Of course for tracks you must be using favorites on your local LMS, not mysb.com. (you may not have picked up that to edit FAVORITES on LMS, open LMS, click on Favorites in the WebGUI, then to the far right border of the word FAVORITES there is a little "pencil" icon. Click on this. Now you can edit, rearrange, rename, etc your Favorites. At this point you can also create folders and subfolders and move your favorites into these folders. I have lots of folders and subfolders for my favorites. Now the above only works for your local LMS, not mysb.com favorites. There's been lots of requests to add folder capability to mysb.com favorites. There is an easy workaround to get this however. 1. Create your local LMS favorites with folders, etc. 2. copy your "favorites.opml" file from its location on your local computer running LMS. 3. put a copy of this "favorites.opml" file somewhere on a website where you have access and can reference it by URL (a URL that doesn't change). I get a bit of free webspace with my internet provider COMCAST. There are a number of ways to host a small file on the web (free Dropbox for example). So I put my "favorites.opml" on that free personal webspace (it is a tiny, tiny file). Then I copy the URL to that file and paste this URL into a FAVORITES on mysqueezebox.com. I give this favorite a name like "Gary's LMS Favorites". So now, even if I'm on mysqueezebox.com (and not my local LMS), I can click on "Gary's LMS Favorites" in my FAVORITES listing and see all my favorites with folder structure intact. Works really nicely and easy to setup. Every once in a while, I copy my most recent favorites.opml file from LMS and replace the one on my COMCAST website so that I keep it up to date. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95607 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
