"Playlists" folders with 0 content - why?

i have several folders that show up on my Samsung TV titled "Playlists", but i have no such folders on the drives i am sharing and serving to the TV through Serviio...
i have looked through the forum, and i don't see anything about that.

suggestions? i just want to get rid of the non-existant folders that are annoyingly appearing next to the real folders i do want access to.

wow, just solved my own problem... apparently i was asking for them to show up in the Presentation section of the Serviio console.
but that brings up another questions...

when i drill down into a folder, and then back up to the folder above it, it will then show me folders that were previously "hidden"... including the non-existant Playlists folder!

for example, i chose videos on the tv, and it supplies me with a few of my video folders. then, i go down into them - this is fine. however, there are also Picture folders in that folder (beside the Video folders) which were not shown because i previously only the Video option on the samsung. now that i am back in that home folder, the picture folders are visible - and so is a Playlists folder that doesn't exist.

The categories (Playlists, Actors, Movies, Series, etc) are just virtual groups, not actual folders on your PC. Just the way Serviio categorises your files. You can disable some in the console, as you found out.

Are you saying that when you disable some, they still appear at some point?
