This directory might require administrative access to write to, so make sure you are logged in as a user with administrative access when you copy files to it. You will find my plugins together with all third party plugins: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezeCenter_Plugins Or directly from my download page: http://erland.isaksson.info/download -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54297 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

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?

As a result, the same playlist will work on Squeezecenter/Ubuntu and in Foobar 2000/Windows. -- atrocity atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54297 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] managing playlists
In the setup there is a specification for a Playlist Directory. Move your playlists there. 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. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54297 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
