Thank you for your continued help. I am getting a response with /MPExtended/MediaAccessService/json/GetMusicAlbumsBasic?provider=4 so it appears I am able to access the music database. My music and playlists are on a network drive. Could that be the cause of my problems? I am able to navigate my music shares via aMPdroid when I use VNC paths. Of course I don't see any way to access playlists via aMPdroid as my playlists are outside of my main music share, but when I go to the Playlists option in MP music menu I can see the playlists in my playlist folder.

Any other ideas on how to solve this problem or an alternative way to accomplish my goal? I just want to be able to programmatically start playing a playlist. If I have the full path to the playlist file, is there a simple command that I can issue to play that file?
