Okay. I figured it out.

Create a Customized View for the DLNA Server.
In the Items To Show panel Add a New Library View.
In the New Library View settings for Show Categories In This Order Add a Playlist Group. When Playlist Group is selected you're presented with a list of your playlists folders. You can then select the folder you want to show in in the DLNA Client.

Works Great!!

Other thoughts:

Do you have two copies of the same album/track on the source NAS which were ripped with different FLAC compression ratios, or contain different embedded images?

Maybe you are comparing a Granny Smith apple to a Red Delicious apple?

I don't know of any way to directly determine the compression ratio of an existing FLAC.  If you really want to pursue it, you could re-rip the album using different compression ratios and see which rip(s) match or come close to your old file sizes (if tags are not identical, the file sizes may be a little different).

WAV files may have less header info than FLAC files.  If there are header differences or music section compression differences in your FLACs, they might still get converted to identical WAV files, as you report, especially since FLAC audio compression/decompression is lossless.

I can only see the settings not the selection rules or you mean you activate this manually so there are no automatic rules?

This morning I remembered why the Selected Track in the List Section and Selected Option in the DSP Window look so odd/bad on the Mac. It's because it, like a few other skins, uses badly formed transparent overlay images with the word "Selection" in their name. When any of those skins are used on the Mac that weird distortion visible in the Images for the ModernCards Dark Skin. two of the skins where the Overlay Images don't get distorted on the Mac are the Pearl Bailey and ThunderStorm Skins. So well done Jappie for, without realising it, changing those "Selection" images from ones that use badly formed images using transparent colours to ones that using solid colours, making it Mac Compatible

Mark that lack of contrast when hovering over inactive tabs on the ViewHeader is down to me, technically the Tabs section of the skin.xml is obsolete and I wrongly removed it;, what I forgot is that although MC no longer has tabbed forms/frames its color statement is used by the ViewHeader sections Inactive Tabs. Incidentally that's not the only place where instructions in one section of the skin.xml get used in another, usually unrelated, section;
the Legacy Tag Window and parts of the DSP Studio window use some of the instructions and images from the List Section.

Mark you don't need to apologise for "borrowing a couple of ideas"; with the exception of the very first skin that was created for MC it is probable that some of the other skins available have borrowed code and ideas from other places. When I created my own skins the layout of the skin.xml is me applying the same principles I'd learnt as a Computer Programmer/Analyst; lay the file out by starting at the top left hand corner and work left to right down the screen to the bottom right hand corner. Some of the images were built using my ideas, or ideas/suggestions my Grand-Daughter came up with, but there are some images that I borrowed from other skins and modified to suit my requirements; and a lot of the remaining code was certainly borrowed from other skins; and I'm certainly not the only Skin Creator that has done that. One of the reasons for all those comments in my skin.xml files was to make it easier for other users to modify them to suite their own requirements or as a starting point when creating a brand new skin.

The reason why adjusting MC's Skinning Effects didn't improve the contrast problem is probably down to the fact that Skinning Effects get applied to the whole skin and unfortunately, thanks to the MC Skinning Engines idiosyncrasies, can result in totally unexpected result.

The attached ET Easy Grey.Zip has the version with the reinstated Tab section plus I've added the 4 mac Close, Minimize, Maximize and Restore Buttons that my skins use and changed the relevant instructions in the MainFrame and Frame sections to use them instead of the 3 OSX buttons.

What profile rules are set?

The rule is in the image of the first post I made.

What profile rules are set?

Is the profile being activated and not behaving or it's not activating at all?

Its not activating at all as you can see in my image, there is no stretch to the pix as the black bars are still showing. Also in the stats it doesnt show "stretch".

The stretch is working on all other films, its only 70mm films it no longer works but it was Im sure.

You can configure different zones differently.  Take a look at the wiki topic.

Different zone?

Sorry I dont know what you mean?
