Spelling: stoped vs stopped
Right. I'll remove the manpage in debian/ and maintain it as a debian/patch/ against the upstream manpage. This makes it easy to unpack as a git patch against upstream that can be pulled, using git-buildpackage pq import.
I just make symbolic links from a new "playlist" directory out to the files, maybe with numeric prefixes on the filenames if I want to order the playlist.
If you file this against the Debian package with an attached patch to the Debian man page, in file debian/minidlnad.8, or do a pull request on salsa.debian.org, I'd be happy to yank it in. (I don't know how the man pages diverged instead of the Debian ones being kept as a patch against upstream. It's a bit hard to figure out from the git history.)
Wow that is fantastic, thanks. I've incorporated that patch into the Debian package, source package minidlna, version 1.3.3+dfsg-0.2, file debian/patches/15-thumbnails.patch. I'm not the official maintainer, so that's just a Non-Maintainer-Upload. Currently in debian/unstable, should migrate to debian/testing in a few days. If there's anyone who would test its functionality, that would be great! Please file on bugs.debian.org if you find any issues, although of course you can also report here if...
