[QUOTE="GillBates, post: 311024, member: 24569"] Thanks for the quick reply, this is one of the examples, the ones I've been testing it with are 19 Montréal, End Titles.mp3 10 Mélodie (Souvenir D'un Lieu Cher).mp3 Now that I have a bit more time, I'll elaborate: I manage 2 households with 2 HTPC's each: my mom's and mine. Both of us use Macbook Pro's and obviously iTunes for our music management / iPod sync, however she wanted to have her playlists in both Mediaportals at home. I've made it work by having a program installed in the Macbooks that syncs the iTunes Music folder and the xml iTunes library to the "master" HTPC, after this I made a program in VB.net that runs on a schedule and: * parses out the itunes xml * replaces the path from the macbook to a path that both HTPC's will recognize * exports all playlists as m3u's to a specified folder. (if anyone is interested in this program I'd be happy to share it, drop me a line) My first issue with this was to do some character replacing because the itunes xml formats special characters in a very strange way, once that got fixed it's been smooth so far. Still, the master HTPC (0.2.3) reads the m3u's with no problem and the secondary HTPC (1.0.0 RC1) is having some trouble with it. Next week I'll try updating the secondary HTPC to the latest RC and report back if the problem is solved. Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
