I also use this workaround to keep my LMS and mysb.com Favorites in sync, even though I almost never use mysb.com.
There is one "gotcha" to this approach, and that is that the mysb.com "Remote Control" cannot read/parse the OPML file sitting on a server with your favorites. So you have to use a software player such as Squeezeplay to access those uploaded Favorites while on mysb.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95607 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
