Hi
I have my music stored in a library on my main PC where I mainly use MediaMonkey. The files are backed up in the same directories on my Dlink NAS which my Onky NR-414 amp can stream quite happily. I also have a laptop that has the same library (but sourced from the NAS) which allows us to use MediaMonkey in the garden.
All work fine but I had a go at exporting the playlists (never done it before) so that I can play certain playlists on the amp without having to switch either PC on. I sent them to the music directory where the files are stored and the amp saw them straight away but obviously couldn't play any because of the file paths. As they were sent from the PC they currently look something like these:
#EXTINF:229,Ellie Goulding - Anything Could Happen
C:\Documents and Settings\My Name\My Documents\My Music\Now, Vol. 83\Ellie Goulding - Anything Could Happen.mp3
#EXTINF:199,Robbie Williams - Candy
C:\Documents and Settings\Gary Wade\My Documents\My Music\Now, Vol. 83\Robbie Williams - Candy.mp3
If they are stored in a music folder in the root directory what should the path be? I access the library on the NAS by selecting "Music" and I tried:
#EXTINF:229,Ellie Goulding - Anything Could Happen
Volume_1\Music\Now, Vol. 83\Ellie Goulding - Anything Could Happen.mp3 As this is how the file path is shown on the NAS
The amp just says "No Item" so I am guessing this isn't correct. I have no idea what the EXTINF bit above it about. Does anyone know what is wrong. As the amp plays all files and sees all the playlists it must be something simple I have missed.
