So does MP2 not play m3u music playlists? The set up I had in MP1 had a playlist folder you could easily access. It is no longer an option in MP2. Do I need to revert to MP1 (again!)

    MP2 uses server side managed playlists: once created, they are visible on all clients and can be used for instant playback. The playlist works for all media items (audio, video, image).

    1) So first you should create media shares for letting the MediaLibrary import your files.

    2) Then there is a playlist import tool included inside MP2-Client:

    Then you get this screen to import a playlist

    Can you give it a try in the order I wrote above?

    This is only for importing a playlist one at a time. I am not prepared to do this for 200 playlists. I just want to be able to set up the music playlist section to tp be bale to play the playlists I already have and can play under MP1. Back to MP1 again. Why remove a perfectly good function? Anyway the import one-by-one function doesn't work either, not that I ever intend to use it. Just letting you know.

    M3U files are accepted in the Utilities / Import Playlists.
    1 catch - There cannot be Any Blank Lines in the file.
    I have tested. Only after editing and removing all blank lines does the importer properly import the playlist.

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.

    Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...
