Music Playlists

[wbravin]

Hello all

Thank you for your comments and replies.

I looked at the old playlist and yes the do have a user id of 00000000000000000
I tried to copy an old playlist to notepad and replaced the UID with the one created and displayed in a newly created small playlist
And saved it as a new playlist with a similar name as the old one

Even performing a search and replace the 00000000000000000 and replace with the newly created UID does not work

it did not work

If I may suggest

When adding Jellyfin server to an environment (be it as an app truenas or as LXC in proxmox) A new Jellyfin UID should be created and this is fine.

However the data for Jellyfin (which i have located in a dataset called Apps with a child called Jellyfin) the data in the dataset and its childs are controlled by ACL

when the server is setup and you cose to add data you point to the media datasets fine
When you set up the server and you add your credentials these credentials should govern the Jellyfin libraries and all its ancillaries.

If Jellyfin needs for whatever translate the UID to a numerical sequence this is fine however there should be a process whereby the end user has the possibility to edit this field, or better yet Jellyfin should create the same UID for the new playlists as the old UID if the user is the same the network is the same and the environment on which Jellyfin is installed the the UID generated should be Identical.

If the end user does not want this, the use must create new credentials

I presume that can be achieved within the Jellyfin server environment

From my part this will be again a massive undertaking that should/could be avoided

Any suggestion

Thank you all for taking time from your busy life to help me
