Using playlists with BubbleUpnp - ste - 03-02-2025 07:17
I want to store some playlists on my server. I use
bubbleupnp as player. The only way whitch works until now is this kind
of path:
http://x.x.x.x:yyyy/minimserver/*/data/Musik/Jazz/abc/Coltrane,*20John/A*20Love*20Supreme/01*20part*201*20-*20acknowledgement.flac
When I omit the http part, bubble shows an empty folder and minimserver
writes an error to the log (Error: playlist Musik/Playlists/test.m3u8:
no content directory for /data/Musik...). When I omit the blank masking,
bubble shows an error (wrong character) and minimserver is ok.
What's my mistake?

If you have a Linux environment available I have a script that converts BubbleUPnP's export to clean (removes http elements and encoding and converts it to a relative path) playlists for hosting in MinimServer.
I wrote it some time ago when I found out that my dad had created vast quantities of playlists in BubbleUPnP, and wasn't backing them up. I've since moved him to another system so I haven't run it for a while, so if you're interested, let me know and I'll dig it out and make sure nothing has changed from the BubbleUPnP export side of things.

My problem is that the relative path doesn't work (see the error above) and I don't know why. I will write my own playlist, store it on the server and play it via minimserver and bubbleUpnp.

The relative path doesn't start with /data. It depends on where the playlist file is located. In the example you posted, the relative path would be this:
../Jazz/abc/Coltrane, John/A Love Supreme/01 part 1 - acknowledgement.flac

If your playlists are stored in a dedicated playlist folder in the root of Musik (Musik/Playlists), then the path to use in the m3u8 file becomes:
Code:
../Jazz/abc/Coltrane,*20John/A*20Love*20Supreme/01*20part*201*20-*20acknowledgement.flacThe next problem is that the MinimServer scanning engine doesn't understand url encoding in playlist paths, so you'll need to decode that to the actual path:
Code:
../Jazz/abc/Coltrane, John/A Love Supreme/01 part 1 - acknowledgement.flacI've just tested the script and it works well, so it might be easier to use the script :-)
If it doesn't make any sense I can walk you through it.
EDIT: I had to change the script extension to txt, otherwise the forum software blocked it.

I think I was quite stupid. With your path it works well here too. Thanks a lot.
