Tnx. I indeed discovered a permission issue with the playlist directory.

playlist is visible and works without a clear warning that something is
wrong with the underlying files/directories.

I stumbled upon this by accident because my children complained about
'disappearing playlists', which at first I didn't understand at all.
Therefore imho this is a bug and not a feature.

The active playlists are stored in cache for quick access by players but
also in the playlists location IF that location is writable which is
probably your issue.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] File location of playlists

2020-10-06 Thread zordaz


I have a perhaps simple question, but so far haven't found the
solution:
When creation a new playlist in LMS 7.9.3 the playlist m3u-file itself
is apparently not saved in the configured playlist location, but
somewhere else.
Only my older playlists files (more than a year old) can be found in the
configured location.

When using the 'locate' command via linux CLI no file with the newly
created playlist name is found. I only find several m3u files in
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/ with generated names, which seems the
active playlists for the players in my house.

So where can I find my new playlist-files?
