ReadyNAS 104 > Playlist Folder Deletion > For Cambridge Audio CXN Network Streaming

OK everyone.

After a long time of research, I finally found out how to create an iTunes playlist on the ReadyNAS that the Cambridge Audio CXN network streamer would be able to read. For those of you struggling, you need to export a m3u playlist from iTunes and then copy/paste this into the iTunes folder on the NAS where your iTunes library is held.  Over the next minute or so, the ReadyNAS creates a corresponding playlist in the NAS library.  (These can take a minute or two to appear so be patient.)  To remove the playlist, all you do is delete the original m3u file you pasted and shortly afterwards the playlist will be deleted by the NAS.

 

Here's the problem I have.

 

An m3u file i deleted left a ReadyNAS playlist in the directory which I have no way of deleing using standard tools.   My question is how I get to it?

I can see the folder I want to delete my clicking My Computer>ReadyNAS104>Music>Playlists, but there is options here to manually delete these files.

 

Anyone got any ideas on how to do this?

 

All in the name of perfecting a ReadyNAS/iTunes/Cambridge Audio CXN network streaming solution.
