Playlist duplicated in 5.1 release

[dmh]

Each playlist is shown twice on the devices, although the list is only once in the assigned playlist folder. How can I get rid of these duplicated playlists? thanks, Daniel

What devices are you referring to?

Are your playlists in .m3u or .m3u8 format?

Re: Playlist duplicated in 5.1 release

I'm using .m3u8 format and the Asset UPnP is installed on a WHS. On the WHS-drive, the playlists are stored once. Whenever I access the playlists through Asset UPnP Media Server (AVR, Notebook etc.), the playlists are shown twice.

Let me see if I can reproduce the issue. Where is your Asset playlist folder, relative to the audio library files?

What software are you creating the .m3u8 playlist files with?

Re: Playlist duplicated in 5.1 release

The playlists are in the "root" Folder of the Artist Folders, in which the Audio files are, e.g. \\WHSName\Music\PlaylistA.m3u, \\WHSName\Music\ArtistA\SongA.mp3. I used the iTunesExport (http://www.ericdaugherty.com/dev/itunesexport/) to convert the iTunes Mediathek.XML file into M3U-playlists.

I just tried creating an .m3u8 playlist and yes, it gets duplicated.

This is not the case for .m3u playlists, so it looks like a bug in Asset R5.1.

I've created .m3u playlists instead of .m3u8, no duplicates anymore... thanks for the hint!

Re: Playlist duplicated in 5.1 release

Strange how I cannot reproduce this, I have 1 playlist a.m3u8 and it is placed in the music root and in asset config there are 2 entries:

z:\ << music
z:\ << playlists

Browsing to playlist only 1 is listed.

Just created 'Clash, The.m3u8' playlist in foobar2000, saved to my playlist folder. Browse in Asset Control gives:

Spoon, I can confirm that Asset UPnP R5.2 beta has fixed the duplicate .m3u8 playlist issue.
