Thanks very much.Edit:OK I installed the plugin and read the thread a bit more carefully, and I think I understand what the difficulty with implementing such functionality would be. It's the integration of Spotifier into MediaPortal's built-in music player itself that would complicate it. So maybe instead of integrating them you could just give Spotifier the ability to play local files (in addition to Spotify tracks) independently of MediaPortal's bulit-in music player, and create &quot;mixed&quot; playlists that way. Unless that too would be difficult. Sorry, I'm completely green when it comes to this stuff.Edit 2:Another thought: there is another MediaPortal plugin like yours called My Spotify. It comes with an &quot;Album Creator&quot; that allows you to drag and drop entire albums (or entire playlists) directly from Spotify and create a playlist from that automatically. Maybe you could add this feature in the future as well. Although this is not as pressing for me, personally. It would be so much easier than searching for tracks and adding them to a playlist individually. Not to mention that sometimes it doesn't find the appropriate track, even if you provide both artist and track name.</blockquote>
