The Plex server should make playlists visible to DLNA clients, either as playlists or folders of files. This would be useful for devices that don’t have a plex client and might be a workaround for the lack of a photo slideshow on Apple devices and the resolution degradation when showing photos on an Android TV plex client. ---

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes. > [@Use Playlists created in Plex over DLNA (Feature request)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/use-playlists-created-in-plex-over-dlna-feature-request/212736/1): > > I love plex but for me the one thing that I find frustrating is that when you create playlists in plex you cannot listen to them over DLNA. I know DLNA isn’t for everyone but on some devices it is the only option. I use DLNA all over the house, on the stereo in the kitchen, on the tvs in the house (although I prefer Plex client) I have used other clients namely Music station for Qnap, just because of the playlists over DLNA feature but I prefer Plex and instead of using for movies and series … Therefore this one is closed, to prevent spreading the votes across several threads, even though they vote for the same (or at least very similar thing). Votes are given back to the users who voted on this request.
