Setting Playlists as Presets

Hi, I might be missing the point or misunderstanding presets but I want to add one of my playlists as a preset to set a routine up on Alexa. However, in the BluOS IOS app there is no option to add any of my playlists just streaming services available. Am I doing something wrong?

My playlists are M3Us stored on my Qnap NAS.

Any help/guidance gratefully received.

Thanks, Julian

  Hello Julian,
  
  At this time the BluOS app is only able to create presets for playlists created through BluOS or other streaming services. What I could suggest to use the playlists on your NAS drive would be to save these playlists as BluOS playlists to create your presets. 

  You can do this by first clearing your play queue, loading your playlist from your NAS drive, then saving the play queue as a BluOS playlist. Once it has been saved as a BluOS playlist you can then find this playlist under My Playlists when creating a preset.

  For more information on managing your play queue, please see the article provided below.
