DLNA Playlist

Hello,

Are playlists supported? If so what format do they need to be in? I can't get them to show up on my devices. Photos and MP3s are working fine.

Update:
Just in case support is going to be added, here is what I found:

When testing, I am able to get WMP11 to share playlists and my devices can play them via UPnP share.
You cannot find them by browsing through the folders through. You have to use a Playlist menu item.

At the top level, the WMP share has:

MUSIC
VIDEO
PICTURES
PLAYLISTS

Under MUSIC there is also a "Music Playlists" Menu item.

The ReadyNas Share has:
MUSIC
PICTURES
VIDEO

==> No option to get to playlists.

Devices: Archos 5, Phillips NP2900

  • Where do you keep the m3u files? In each individual directories? In the root directory that ReadyDLNA is scanning/monitoring?
    What directory names do you use in the m3u files to refer to the target mp3 files? relative addressing?
  • Great question, alokeprasad. Anyone able to help? that will speed my tests along quite a bit. TIA.
