If the MME syncrhonizes a device (say a USB stick) and it finds playlist
files which it recognizes (based on file extension, i.e. something like
".pls" or ".m3u") it will create a playlist entry in the playlists table and
will insert the corresponding playlist entries as fids in the playlistdata
table.

Gracenote is not included. You are probably best off to talk to your sales
representative about how to get it.

Hi Gilles!
     Thanks for your reply!
     I have some problems need to clarify.
     (1)Is the playlist files(".pls" or ".m3u")  created by myself,or the mme include playlist files itself,only need to
 be syncrhonized?
     (2)My media files is stored in the HardDrive,if I want to get a playlist displayed in the HMI,how should I do ?
     (3)The mme has passed the 3 syn, but the playlists table and playlist_data table is empty,why?
    Looking for your reply ,thanks!

You need to create the playlist files yourself in order for them to be scanned like
the media. Only certain formats will be scanned. (look at the mme.conf file for
the extentions handled in your version)

Once the playlist and playlistdate tables are populated, in the same manner that
you would present data from the library table.

During the sync no playlists were found. You make things more verbose during the sync 
to see exactly what is happening. During the file sync pass it will note files that 
would be flagged as playlists. If it doesn't find any then there is nothing to do during
the 3rd pass sync.

Do you have playlists on your system that you expected to be found?
