 In the setup there is a specification for a Playlist Directory.  Move

 The only real Gotcha is that some programs make paths to files
 relative instead of absolute... which won't usually work.  (Ie
 relative to -WHAT- becomes an issue.
 
 I believe that if you configure iTunes/SC correctly, it will see and
 use any playlists you create in iTunes automatically.  No need to move
 anything.
 
 You can also use the web interface... build up a 'Now Playing' sort of
 playlist and then save it as a name.  ('Save' is a little box on the
 lower right of the browser with the Default skin on SC7, just to  the
 left of Delete.)
 
 That said, I personally don't use any playlists: I swear by Erland's
 plugins like Dynamic Playlist and Trackstat to make playlists on the
 fly.

Thanks for info. On the webinterface it will not allow me to specify a
playlist directory.

Can you please tell me where to download erlands dynamic playlist and
how to install them.

Previously I have tried putting plugins into the plugin folder within
the public folder on the slimserver but I am denied access. Any ideas
with this also?

Thanks
Gordon

[slim] managing playlists

2008-10-27 Thread Gordon30

Hi,

On the classic slimserver what is the best way to set up and manage
playlists?

I know it can be done via the remote control but isn't that user
friendly.

I also know you can make a playlist on music mixer but an not sure how
to use it on the slim server.

any help much appreciated.

thanks,
Gordon
