Playlists

[pgriffith 88]

Hi all have a few questions regarding playlists.

1. How the hell do I get playlists to show on my Home Screen? It's in the library order list but does not show. I have 12 in total and only 11 show up. The only way I've been able to access playlists is by adding it at as a Home Section which I'd prefer to not have to do.

2. I've added 5 TV series to a playlist so I can share that with one of my users, is there a way to get it to show as 5 separate TV shows and not a list of 47 individual episodes in one big list? I've had to sort by filename to at least keep them grouped by show. I've looked everywhere, so I'm either stupid or this is a really poor implementation.

My user rights has access to all libraries. Interestingly if I go into access and deselect enable access to all libraries, the playlist entry is a different green colour to all the other entries and can't be unselected.

Any help appreciated.

Hi, where are you looking for it on the home screen?

Hi, no, but a collection could do that.

Can you share a collection with another user?

Collections are global.

For your visibility issue, what libraries are defined for your "My Media" row?

Hi ebr, you'll have to be a bit clearer on what you mean there. You talking about in Library in server settings, or from within my user profile somewhere?

User Settings -> Home Screen -> My Media row:

That's set to All, and everything in there including playlists is ticked.

Ok I would try creating a new playlist and see if that gets it to show up.
