yep! those are they. i
thought maybe that it was something to do with the drive letters - but then
thought better of it. are the playlists always meant to be stored in the
same folder as the tunes themselves? i presume so. Otherwise you
would need absolute paths to them (although my pls playlists have the same
problem). it would be nice if the slimp3 could point to the musicmatch
playlists area

(D:\program
files\MusicMatch\MusicMatch Jukebox\Playlist\Default on my system) and
understand those.

in the meantime i can still play
folders, and if i find out why this is happening i will give you a
shout.

Thanks.

Is it safe to assume that the folder that contained this m3u file also
contained the following MP3 files:

One Night In Heaven.mp3
Moving On Up.mp3
Renaissance.mp3
You
Just Have To Be There.mp3
Love Is In My Soul.mp3
Don't Look Any
Further.mp3
Natural Thing.mp3
Little Packet.mp3
La Vida
Loca.mp3
Melody Of Life.mp3

If so, then it seems fine to me. I tried making a similar one on my
system (you seem to be on a PC, from the DOS-style line endings in the file)
and it worked fine.

I'd say to try the 2.1 version when it comes out, or download a beta
version to try the current fixes.

dean - i've
attached a simple m3u file that contains a list of all the tunes in the
folder it resides. it works fine on my
server.

Thanks. Could you resend it zipped (or gzipped, or
stuffed) into an archive? I want to make sure the file comes through
bit for bit without any mailers in the way?

what is
interesting for version 2 of the software is
that:

1. the m3u file gets listed last
(instead of first) - meaning if you play the parent folder it will play
all the tunes in it (better than
before)

The fix I just made for 2.1 reverts to the earlier behavior of
not playing the contents of playlists when you play the folder containing
them. When you play a folder, it just plays the songs (recursively)
in that folder. If you want to play the playlist, select the
playlist and press PLAY.

2. it will then
get to the m3u file and say <empty> - which as you can see it
isn't (i realise that there may be user-stupidity at large here) -
whether i use the player remote or
browser

Hmm... I haven't seen this. I'll try to
reproduce.

3. the id3 tags
work well for finding things - though i had
a

\genre\j-m\artist\album style system before which
works pretty well. i couldn't have found everything by pink floyd
from 1982 though. i better get all the tags sorted
then!

I've got the same problem. Before I fixed all my file
names and folder names, but now I've got to fix my tags! That's
progress for you...
