Hello. First post here. Just looking for a little support. I'm trying to get Kodi set up as a media player in a school so that I and a number of other people can control it remotely. However, I have run into one show stopper. I cannot create a playlist and access it from everywhere.
From what I can tell, there are three ways to control the device.
1) From the Device - With a mouse and keyboard I can create and view playlists here. But since I want remote access, this isn't a good solution.
2) Kore remote - I can access the currently playing list of songs, but I cannot seem to access or create additional playlists from Kore. Again, not a great solution for remote access.
3) Web Interface Chorus2 - probably the interface of choice. I can create and view playlists, but if I use another browser (or even if Kodi gets a new IP addresses), I lose my playlists. Poof...Gone. This doesn't seem right to me.
Any idea on how I might make one place for music and playlists to be store so numerous people on various types of devices can access them? Seems like web should do that, but it does not. Thanks for any help.
