Some playlists not showing up

I have 25 playlists, but only 12 of them are displayed on either the Media Browser or my Samsung TV. They are all .wpl files with the same format. Any ideas?

Re: Some playlists not showing up

I just did a force refresh in Serviio console and the attached is still not showing up in the playlists. Had to do it as a .zip file since the BB complained that the .wpl could be an attack.

Re: Some playlists not showing up

I tried saving the playlist as a .m3u playlist, then did another force refresh. Now it shows up. Is there a problem using .wpl playlists?

Re: Some playlists not showing up

Good news! To force an overwrite, I did a "save playlist AS" in WMP to the existing .wpl file for each playlist that was missing and now all the playlists show up via Serviio. I hope this helps anybody who might be having the same problem.

Still would like to know what it didn't like about the original .wpl files :?:

Re: Some playlists not showing up

I did the compare. The GUID metatag was in the bad .wpl, but I tried removing that line and it still didn't work.

Re: Some playlists not showing up

The original file was saved with unsupported BOM bytes at the beginning of the file. I have now fixed that for 1.4.1.

Re: Some playlists not showing up

I see that now that I ran a 'dump' of the file. I wonder where that came from.

Thanks for the follow-up!
