how to create music choice playlists with U-verse
According to support content: "The Music Choice app gives customers more music choices with up to 46 music channels. The redesigned interface lets you personalize your music, store favorite channels, create your own music and video playlists, and search the library. You can access Music Choice Play (formerly SWRV) within the application - the first 24/7 interactive music network that lets you customize your experience and access thousands of music videos. Music Choice Play offers live commenting and voting through Twitter. So tune in to channels 5100-5146 to begin the ultimate music experience through U-verse TV."
I doubt the app is hidden somewhere within channels 5100-5146. If anybody else has wondered or better yet set up and created their own playlists I'd encourage them to share their experiences!

Yes, you can start a picture show and then start music. Or you can connect your STB to your amp and turn off the TV.
When I first discovered Media Share I found that extended use (a few hours or more) would cause the STB to become slugish and erratic. Rebooting the STB fixed that. I summize some sort of memory leak. I have not experienced this in the last 2 years or more.

Yes, STB means Set Top Box, and rebooting I mean hold the power button on the front of the STB for 10 seconds (or until it starts blinking) then let go, though pulling the power cord would work, too. Rebooting will take 2-3 minutes to complete.
Pushing the power button just puts it in "standby."

No problem, happy to help. Earlier, I had said that a long time ago (on a previous version of the firmware), Music Choice caused symptoms of a memory leak. I meant Media Share, not Music Choice, and wanted to be sure I made that clear.

Haven't touched it (Plex) personally, nor do I know much of anything about it. I looked it up once a long time ago.
I want to set up a home media server, but I never get around to it. Media Player is getting the music job done (barely), the STB Media Share won't play streaming video. My Samsung Bluray layer will do DLNA playback, so I'm starting to get interested again. But I'll need some more disk space for my video library.

I have Plex on my PC, too. No better than TVersity, so I'm sticking with that. I also use TVersity with BubbleUpNP Android app and MX Player Android App to stream movies to my Android phone anbd tablet. Prolly do the same with Plex.

There are still no classical music choices that I can find going through channel 500 and trying to create a play list. I don't want to have to go through the steps of creating a playlist!
