Using playlists is very clunky right now. Just the fact that you have to go select "rescan playlists" as you make changes makes it a pain. Look at the timestamps, if the file changed, re-read it. Of course you cannot do that today if the playlist scan takes 2-10 minutes. But if the server is smart about only running those extra steps when a library change is detected that could effect the result, and doesn't re-scan playlist files whose timestamp is unchanged, and only re-scans lazily as you browse into a playlist, it should be completely seamless. greg _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
