Is the following playlist scenario supported ?

Postby makutaku on Fri May 26, 2006 7:14 am

I have a desktop and a PVR. Here's a simple scenario that's not supported by SageTV or JRiver and I wonder if Xlobby supports it:

Use Case: Creating playlists on desktops and consuming them on the PVR:

1) In my desktop I have access to songs in a shared network directory;

2) I open WMP (or another client) and create a new playlist (or open an existing one);

3) Then I save the playlist in the shared folder;

4) While I look for the remote control, Xlobby detects that a new playlist was added (or an existing one was changed);

5) Using the remote that I just found, I press a button to go to a playlist page and the new playlist is already there.

6) At this point I may want to either select the new playlist to play or click to open and see its content.


Is this supported ? Most of the current players expose implementation details (such as library database, etc) that just get in the way ...
