Title: Web/Webservice API --> create and edit playlist
Post by: faster on November 28, 2012, 10:18:12 am

Hello,

when will it be able to create/edit/del Playlists over the web api. I think this is an essential Feature to make JRiver one of the best Media Center Solutions.
I am missing this Basic Feature also in JRemote.

regards faster

This is already in v18:
SDK: Added MCWS/v1/Playback/EditPlaylist function for moving or removing tracks from the current playlist.

Editing regular playlists is scheduled for v18, but I'm not sure when it will happen.

thanks for the fast Response!
yes, I mean "Editing regular playlists" and hope that it will not so far in the future.

Regards faster!

I strongly second this.

We can already edit tags and ability to edit playlists is the missing killer API feature.

For example, I need to edit regular playlists (not just current playing one) for a program that goes over the playlists and replaces the songs with better versions if I have one. (replace stack elements with stack top). I have already all the code, but currently the updated playlists are created externally and there is no decent way of importing them while maintaining their folder structure.
