In the advanced import menu dialog, do you have "Audio Playlist (.m3u, pls, xpl, bpl)" checked?

Are the filenames (including paths) correct inside these m3u playlists? In other words, do you have excatly the same filename paths on both PCs?

Ah!
That will be it, the playlists refer to media on the master pc drives, the media center I am having an issue with has the media sat on its own hard drive and this folder is synchronised with with the master one.
I think I will therefore go back to sharing the original master files across my network.
Thank you so much

regards
