iTunes Playlist stupid question

[aussietx]

Ok so I used the "Add iTunes Library" option and I do see the iTunes playlists presented as folders on the server.
I read in other posts that the music will not appear in these but in the "All Music Files" folder.
The music was actually on my wife's laptop so I shared the iTunes folder and music files folder so that Mezzmo (installed on WHS 2011) can see them all.

Here is the stupid part of the question.
So how do you actually play the imported iTunes playlists?
I access Mezzmo and see the iTunes playlists on the TV, but just as they show on the server they are empty folders with nothing to select.

Thx

Hi Pat,

Are you in Music mode on your TV? For example, if you are in Video mode on your TV, then you will see an empty list if there are no videos in the playlist or folder you are browsing.

If that does not help, then it's best we see a set of logs. Turn on logging (see http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) and restart your Mezzmo server. Now reproduce the problem on your TV. After reproduced, stop your Mezzmo server and exit Mezzmo app. Zip up all the logs and email them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.

Thanks Paul. Yes on my Samsung went to Music and playlist folders are showing empty. All other folders (Album Artist, Composer, etc) contain tracks and play fine.
Will get you the logs.

OK - we'll check the logs when we receive them and report back via email.

One quick question though...
I am wondering if there is a problem with the DB.
I added an additional drive to the server a while ago and moved all the WHS Shared folders over to the new drive.
I used the Tools tab under "Maintain Library" to update Mezzmo of the new locations.
All seemed to go ok.
But now in the library many items/folders are duplicated. Not sure if that happened immediately after the move or not.
E.g I have two Music Folders. Both are identical except for the Folder location. The first one shows it at f:\ServerFolders\Music while the other Music folder (identical contents) shows the folder at F:\ServerFolders\Music.

Hopefully the logs will show any problems regarding possible duplication. Just to be sure, take screenshot(s) of the duplication in Mezzmo app and email them to us so we know what you mean and track it in the logs.
