2009-07-15 Thread yoyoma
Using 7.3.3, when I try to save an already existing playlist using the web interface, I get a message, "Note: Illegal characters in name, Please edit.", and I am unable to save it. Does anyone know why this is happening? The playlist is called, "EmilyPlaylist". Thanks. -- yoyoma ---

Since the UI controls more than just the Boom, this would be a very useful feature (and one that used to be available on the old default skin). I've got an SB3 hooked up to my stereo in my living room, with speakers that go into my bedroom, where my computer desk is. If I want to change the stat
