When making a playlist on the BluOS, each time you add a track to an existng playlist the system asks to choose between "local music" or "BluOS", even if server mode is disabled.

This quickly becomes very annoying. It would be preferable to activate the selection only when server mode is enabled.

  Hi Alain

  The option should happen if Server Mode is disabled. Do you want to save the Playlist in BluOS or on the USB Drive?

  If Server Mode is enabled, then it should default to BluOS as the only option as the USB drive is part of your local library. Is that not happening?

  Hi Tony,

  For me it is obvious that I want to save a playlist or changes to one on the BluOS when te server is disabled.

  When I enable the server but no usb device is connected, the system defaults to "local" and no lists are shown as there is no medium. (and I don't want a dongle on my streamer, if only for back-up but it no longer works)

  I personally have no use for the server mode and working on a playlist should always default to BluOS when the server is off and/or when there is no medium. (This should of course not interfere with users that want server mode.)

  I would really appreciate "server off" = "BluOS" (as it was before)
