Haha, you arent really suggesting to use NTFS links over network? ๐Ÿ˜‰
Quite kinky those “black magic from M$” ๐Ÿ˜‰

Might sound weird what Im about to suggest, but it might actually work for you.
You could define a set of folders aka “playlist 1” “playlist 2” etc.
Then create SMART playlists by file path that include contents of said folders.
Then you could have each client browse these instead of static playlists.
Only bugger would be that for each new file, you’d have to trigger a scan in mt-daapd so it sees them.

But that could be circumvented by some scripting. In fact I think I saw someone with an “incoming” script here once…. ๐Ÿ˜‰
