WD TV Live won't play playlists

I set up playlists in Windows Media Player 11 thinking they would play. I get the message that says “no data found in the file”. Level 2 said it is a “path” problem and that the player itself is working ok. I am not a pc guru. But there has to be some way to make this happen. I  have seen other posts that say their player plays playlist without a problem. I need some help with this because WD can’t help.

There is a problem in making play-lists because they have to contain a path to the drive and directory that the files are in. In a number of circumstances such as attached hard discs the file position will change. How are you playing the files in the playlist. Don’t forget that as far as the WDTV is concerned the disc attached to it has no drive letter and therefore any playlist with a letter will not play.

You could try making playlists with this free program. You may need to play about with the Playlist Details setting regarding ‘absolute’ or ‘relative’ .
