Playlist issues

[Rusty]

Greetings,

1st time posting here, I hope this issue hasn't been discussed previously and I just didn't see it. I am very non-technical, so apologies for that in advance.

I had been running the original Minimserver on a Synology NAS and using a Raspberry Pi 4 controlling with Bubbupnp on an Android tablet without issue for quite some time. Last week, a technically knowledgeable friend took my NAS and updated the Synology software, added Minimserver 2 with the License, and Java. I added Minimwatch 2 to the PC I use on the network. I got it going a couple days ago and thought everything was good though I hadn't started playing music yet.

I had several albums I just ripped and a couple DSD downloads in a folder I was holding off the NAS until the update because I've been waiting for the Recently Added Tab. When I started everything up, I didn't see the Recently Added Tab on Bubble, and just made a playlist where I thought I'd add these albums.

I spent the last couple days here troubleshooting why Minimwatch didn't see Minimserver, and why the DSD files wouldn't play. MUCH to my surprise, with help from this forum and a French vineyard, I resolved both issues. Time to Listen to some music.

I copied the new files onto the NAS and started a new playlist for them. Everything was fine until it got to the 1st DSD record and it stopped. All the 44.1 and 96 khz records are fine, but not the DSD records, they wouldn't play. I went into the Artists Tab and found the DSD records, hit play, and they play fine. Just not from the playlist. Then out of curiosity, I selected other playlists established prior to the the update, and none would play any music regardless of format. They appear to be dead, though they look normal on Bubble.

So...any chance I can recover all my existing playlists?
Is there a way to play DSD from a playlist as before?
Where is that Recently Added Tab?

Thanks for your consideration.

How did you create these playlists? If you made them using BubbleUPnP, there is a known issue with the way BubbleUPnP stores its playlists that can cause the problems you are seeing.

The planned support for "Recently Added" within MinimServer is not yet available.

Thank you for the quick reply.

Yes, the playlists were created in Bubble. One that was just created since the upgrade to Minimserver 2.0 that won't play DSD files, only PCM, and all the others created over the past few years prior that won't play anything. Never had any trouble until now with my playlists.

I hadn't considered Bubble to be the issue. Does anyone know if there are fixes for this issue? Are there preferred controllers to Bubble now?
