I just updated to this level from 6.0.2. It seems much snappier -- I added my entire music collection as a playlist and it added and shuffled within seconds. Before this would have brought the server to its knees for a while. So kudos there.
However, my playlists seem to have disappeared. More precisely, the Slimserver doesn't see them. The files are still as I left them, and I checked and the playlist directory is still set correctly in Slimserver. But when I browse playlists, none of them show up. Any ideas? Also, a minor bug. I did Browse Music -> Browse Artists and then went to the top of the list where I expected to see "All Artists", but instead it said "All Albums". Maybe that's as intended -- I can't remember the previous behavior. Seems like it should say All Artists, though. Anyway, help on the playlists would be appreciated. Any way I can force Slimserver to see them? I haven't played around with SqueezeNetwork yet. I may try that over the long holiday weekend. On the whole, very nice. One of my biggest pet peeves was the slowness to load large sets of songs.
