Why can I not see a playlist?

Post by tomh009 » Tue Dec 30, 2008 1:27 am

So I'm trying to create a playlist ... but still no success. I can connect to TwonkyMedia (version 4.4.9) and browse the music using WMP. I create a a playlist from the songs, and save it as a .m3u file onto the main music folder on my TwonkyMedia server. I can see that the server picks it up, and appears to work on it:

Code: Select all

18:22:25:340 LOG_SCANworking on /mnt/md1/music/high/Jazz & Bossa.m3u
18:22:25:340 adding /mnt/md1/music/high/Jazz & Bossa.m3u
18:22:25:340 upnp_locate_playlist_file playlistfile=[/mnt/md1/music/high/Jazz & Bossa.m3u] file=[http://172.16.172.110:9000/disk/music/DLNA-PNMP3-OP11-FLAGS01700000/O1$268435466$1744834328.mp3?WMContentFeatures="DLNA.ORG_PN=MP3;DLNA.ORG_OP=11;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=01700000000000000000000000000000"&WMHME=1&WMHMETitle=UwBhAG0AYgBhACAAZABlAGUAcwAgAEQAYQB5AHMA]
( ... )
18:22:25:390 upnp_locate_playlist_file playlistfile=[/mnt/md1/music/high/Jazz & Bossa.m3u] file=[http://172.16.172.110:9000/disk/music/DLNA-PNMP3-OP11-FLAGS01700000/O1$268435466$1744834037.mp3?WMContentFeatures="DLNA.ORG_PN=MP3;DLNA.ORG_OP=11;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=01700000000000000000000000000000"&WMHME=1&WMHMETitle=UwBtAG8AbwBjAGgA]
18:22:25:390 added /mnt/md1/music/high/Jazz & Bossa.m3u
18:22:25:390 LOG_DB:adding playlist /mnt/md1/public/applications/twonkymedia/twonkymedia.db/filescan33.import.playlists!
18:22:25:390 LOG_DB:playlist import /mnt/md1/public/applications/twonkymedia/twonkymedia.db/filescan33.import.playlists
But nothing shows up under playlists. I have also tried saving as .pls, and using relative paths in a .m3u file (by connecting to the NAS with Windows networking to build the playlists). In the latter case, the log file shows that TwonkyMedia is finding the files -- but still no joy, and no playlists showing (either in SoundBridge or on the TwonkyMedia server's web page).

Code: Select all

19:26:39:040 locate_playlist_file_by_dir dir=[/mnt/md1/music/high] file=[Sarah McLachlan - Wintersong\11 - Sarah McLachlan - In the Bleak Mid-Winter.mp3]
19:26:39:040 locate_playlist_file_by_dir check=[/mnt/md1/music/high/Sarah McLachlan - Wintersong/11 - Sarah McLachlan - In the Bleak Mid-Winter.mp3]
19:26:39:040 locate_playlist_file_by_dir FOUND [/mnt/md1/music/high/Sarah McLachlan - Wintersong/11 - Sarah McLachlan - In the Bleak Mid-Winter.mp3]
How can this be so difficult? :roll:

Is no one really using playlists with a NAS (or Linux) TwonkyMedia server? Surely I can't be the first one ...

Hi,

have you read the other posts?

http://www.twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5570

It's a know bug, but I don't think that it will be fixed in a 4.x.x - Version.

Thanks -- I had missed that one!

I manually edited one of my playlists to remove the #EXTINF lines, and it works! Means a manual step to do it, but at least I can make them work. :D

Thanks again ...

What else should we do since PV doesn't seem to fix this problem in a V4.x ... :(
