Hi,
I just joined to post this report.
Extended M3U music playlists on NAS accessed via Kore are not displayed properly and are also not in the correct order.
Setup: Latest Kore on Android 5.1.1 connecting to R-Pi OpenElec/Kodi 5.0.8 with NFS mount to Synology NAS
This looks very much like a bug, but may also extend into a feature request depending on how you view things.
I say "BUG", because this is handled correctly on Kodi when accessed via the screen and keyboard, namely, the playlist contents are fully displayed on screen and in the order defined by the playlist file.
Details:
When accessed (via an NFS mount previously configured in Kodi), the playlist file is obviously read and interpreted successfully, thus indicating playlist handling functionality. But only the duration information is displayed and the Artist and Track information are blank. The tiled list appears to be sorted in alphabetical order (left to right) rather than the order defined by the playlist, which rather defeats the purpose of the list. IMHO, the default order should be the list order, with possibly the option to re-sort by some other criteria (new feature). Each entry can be played, which is when you find out what it is!
As it "nearly works", I'm guessing it is supposed to work, but has a slight bug somewhere.
More info on request, if required.
Otherwise a nice slick easy to use App which does all I need, and preferred over the current competition (of those I tried) which also do not quite handle this case fully or even at all.
Many thanks for your attention and/or feedback.
