Hello everyone,
I have a QNAP storage drive, which I use with poweramp DB and minimserver.
Does anyone know whether I can make playlists, and if so, how? I have tried / searched everything but I can’t work out if this is possible.
I also can’t easily change the titles of albums.
It used to be so easy with my unitiserve!
Any help / guidance greatly appreciated.
Long time since I used. Do you want to do it manually on the server? I think you create .m3u files? Maybe .pls file.
You can make playlists using the Naim app. Change metadata using dbpoweramp. Just go into the Qnap folder, find the album, open up dbpoweramp with a right click and off you go.
Here’s the text of one from MinimServer on my QNAP.
(The …/…/…/ at the front of each path means go up three directory tree levels from the folder holding this file.)
