So the question is, how do i get firefly and my soundbridge to update the itunes playlists?

There are a couple possibilities for the cause of the problem. One was a change in the behavior of the format that apple writes the iTunes Music Library.xml file in.

The other is that it might be that there are multiple copies of your iTunes Music Library.xml in your “My Music” folder, and you are seeing playlists from the “old” copy.

So try a “find files” under “my music” and see if you find more than just the 1 .xml file. (Note that the server tries to interpret any xml file as an iTunes xml file, so just search for *.xml).

The other items are fixed by newer versions of the server. In the roku forums (http://www.rokulabs.com/forums) for firefly is a sticky for the 1.1 beta version. You could also try the latest nightly at http://nightlies.mt-daapd.org. Either of those would fix the issues with the iTunes xml format.

Please let us know what that does.
