Correct, Remote Control > Favorites cannot access the OPML file. I'm guessing for two reasons: 1. MySB web UI cannot understand folders nor OPML 2. the OPML file is a link to a file, it's not actually a "favorite" as MySB web UI would understand it -- toby10 --

This is great. One of my wife's complaints about switching between SBS and mysb.com (when we let our server go into suspend state) is that the Favorites look different, because I have folders on SBS but not on mysb. I think my favorites.opml will soon be my _only_ Favorite on mysb.com. When test

It really does work nicely. I manage these station favorites on SBS then do the OPML upload to my online file share service. But an FYI to others using this concept, there are some catches. Issues using SBS to manage these: 1. SBS should have a separate MySB (or internet radio) OPML folder so

To checlk whether the host is suitable - When you have created a link - if you click on the link in a browser you should see the OPML text. You could use Google Code and just have a single file in your Project or perhaps add the opml file amongst a real project. Not sure if Google would like the

I had never even noticed that I had a small free "personal" web space with my COX internet service. Doesn't allow too much space, but way more than I need for opml files. I activated it, and using the webpage management page at cox.net, I uploaded an opml file, with folder, etc. from my local SbS.
