I've got Squeezecenter running on my Windows Home Server serving music
to my Squeezebox Boom and Duet devices (which I love!). I have over
10,000 tracks and I tagged them all and arranged the folder structure
two years ago (I went with an approach I read on here at the time -
e.g. Music\A\ACDC\Highway to Hell folder structure). Lazily, I never
got around to creating playlists so I'm really not getting the full use
out of my library. I had MusicIP working on it for a while but it
stopped working after an update and I'm not sure I have the energy to
figure it out again.

I'd now like to setup playlists so that I use more of my library on the
Squeezebox devices, but I also want to copy some of my tracks to my HTC
HD2 phone and also two Creative Zen MP3 players and I also want to
setup various playlists that would work on all of those devices.

Basically, I'm not well up on how to setup playlists. I remote desktop
into my WHS and use MP3Tag on it to do the tagging and folder
restructing on there. It takes hours for it to load up when I point it
at the root folder, so I generally just load up one folder (e.g. A) at
a time, so it'd take forever to setup playlists. Is there a smarter way
to do it (e.g. a program that will quickly load that large number of
tracks)? Is there any way to make the playlists so that they'll work in
Squeezecenter but also on the MP3 players when I copy the tracks and
playlists across (e.g. relative references to file paths)?

Thanks for any tips to make this process a little less tedious so that
I can finally get the most out of my collection that I took so much to
put together over the years!
