It is unfortunate that there are so few tools for creating server-side .m3u playlists.
If you have a Windows PC, the best tool I have found for this is Playlist Creator from oddgravity. This is no longer supported by its author but it still works. It is available from various download sites such as
this one.
To use this, you need to do the following:
1) In Windows Explorer, use Tools > Map network drive to map your music library shared folder to a Windows drive letter
2) Download and install Playlist Creator 3.6.2
3) In Playlist Creator, select Settings > Playlist Details
4) Under Saving playlist entries, select Relative and check 'Use forward slashes'
5) Create a folder on the mapped drive (see step 1) to store your playlists
6) In Playlist Creator, enter the folder you created in step 5 into the 'Save location' field
7) In Playlist Creator, enter the name of the playlist you want to create into the the 'Name and type' field and select .m3u as the type.
8) Drag the files you want in the playlist from Windows Explorer into Playlist Creator
9) In Playlist Creator, click the Create Playlist button
10) Repeat steps 7, 8 and 9 to create additional playlists
Try this first on one playlist to make sure you have the settings correct. When you do a MinimServer rescan, the playlist you have created should appear in the index under '1 playlist' and you should be able to select it and play it using your control point.
