How you create a basic playlist depends a lot on which interface you are using. There's the infrared remote (for SB Classic, Boom, Radio, etc), the Duet Controller (for any SB), the SB itself (for Boom, Radio, Transporter, Touch), and the SBS web interface (all SBs except for Touch when running its built-in Squeezebox Server, TinySBS). Which do you want?
To get you started, let's take the SBS web interface as an example, since it works for all SBs. You have two panes. On the left is the main menu, which takes you into your music library. On the right is the current playlist. Go through your library, and when you find an album or a track you want to add to the playlist, click on the "+" button. The track(s) should then appear on current playlist in the right-hand pane. Continue until you've selected all the tunes you want. Note that if you click on a "Play" icon instead of the "+" icon, you will replace the contents of the current playlist rather than adding that track to the playlist. Once you have the tracks in the current playlist, you can re-order them by dragging-and-dropping _within_ the right-hand pane. You can also delete tracks in the right-hand pane. If you want to save the playlist for later use, you can click the save icon in the lower right corner, at which point you will be prompted to give a name to the playlist. The playlist will be saved in the directory you specified for playlists under Settings > Basic Settings. Making playlists with other interfaces are simply variations on this same theme. Note that you can also make playlists on other software as long as the software can save the playlists as .m3u files. Also note that a lot of other software is better at making playlists than SBS. If you use other software, save or copy the playlist(s) to your SBS playlist directory, rescan playlists, and they will be available to you. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87369 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
