How to make m3u playlists works with ingame player

[gcaldani]

Hello,

well this a very small issue as most of us use external player, anyway I wanted to understand why some people (as me) cannot play m3u playlists while other people can do.

So, thanks to Feriol that told me his playlists work pretty fine in game, and that they were created with winamp.

So, obviously, i created a playlist with winamp and compared it with my old m3u files that never worked in game (created long time ago with a different program).

Then, the answer is simple:

What you need is just:

1. First line of the m3u file must be: #EXTM3U
2. No quotes at all in the paths, even if they contains spaces
3. the paths must be relative to the m3u file position on disk. Absolute paths wont work.


In this way all your m3u playlists always work with the ingame player and don't need to recreate them all with winamp.

Even if this info is not very useful, that can be used by devs to eventually improve the player.
