ability to add files from other shared folders to a playlist

Hi,

Currently it seems that playlists can only point to files in the same shared folder they are in. I.e. it is impossible to have a shared folder with only playlists which point to music files being in other shared folders.

For instance, given the following list of shared folders, Playlists in /volume1/Audio/Playlists cannot access files the two other shared folders :
/volume1/Audio/Artists
/volume1/Audio/Compilations
/volume1/Audio/Playlists

It would be great if you could remove this restriction. Note, having /volume1/Audio as shared folder is not what i want, I have other Audio files in subfolders I don't want to share via serviio.

Thanks in advance

I think this should work already. As long as the item in the playlist is in the library.

Would be a great feature though, if I could also put files in the playlist that aren't already in the library. This would mean I wouldn't have to scan all directories, just the playlist directory.
