I got my first Squeezebox within the last couple months and, other than
one or two issues at start up, this is the first problem I've had with
Slimserver or the Squeezebox.  My Slimserver is running on Linux,
Debian Sarge, but this is likely not at all a Linux issue, so I'm
asking it here.  I'm using the next to latest Slimserver version and
don't want to upgrade yet, since I have to upgrade the rest of the
system first.

I found a very large collection of old time radio shows, which I love. 
I had not anticipated this and wanted to make a few alterations to my
directory layout so I could include all the radio shows but still keep
them in separate directories from my music.  Previously I just had this
setup:

music: /data/Audio/flac
playlists: /data/Audio/playlists

Slimserver music directory: /data/Audio/flac
Slimserver playlist directory: /data/Audio/playlists

Then I moved to this setup:

music: /data/Audio/Music
radio plays: /data/Audio/RadioPlays
playlists: /data/Audio/playlists

Slimserver music directory: /data/Audio
Slimserver playlist directory: /data/Audio/playlists

I ran into problems with this because playlists did show up, but they
were all empty.  Every playlist in the directory was visible in
Slimserver, but they were empty.  These are M3U playlists I've created
by other programs and I never had a problem with them until now.  When
Slimserver was not reading the playlist contents, I thought there might
be an issue with them being within the audio directory, so I moved it
to:


playlists: /data/AudioPlaylists

Slimserver playlist directory: /data/AudioPlaylists

Everything else has been kept the same.  I've rescanned the playlists
many times and rescanned the entire collection once, but it's made no
difference.  The playlists are seen and listed as playlists, but
Slimserver sees them as empty.

Why isn't Slimserver reading the contents of my playlists?

Thanks for any help on this!
