Why Creative's GUI stomps all over Rockbox

Sure, it's right here. Just rename the file extention to m3u :)

Sorry for the tone. I will admit that I need to familiarize myself with the manual a bit more, but how do you explain Rockbox not being able to play my foobar and winamp created m3u file?
Llorean:
Well, the basic answer would be "You've done something wrong, because m3u playlists work for all of us", but instead of stopping there, we're trying to figure out how to fix your problem.
What does the folder structure look like on your device? Was the M3U created by pointing to the actual files on the player, or is it pointing to the ones on your hard disk?

The m3u file is pointing to the songs from my hard disk on my PC. But the same files are on my iPod. Could that be the problem?
Llorean:
Are they in the exact same folder structure?
If you look, an M3U is JUST a list of filenames with paths. Rockbox will ignore the M:\, but it will NOT search the whole hard disk to find them, it can't. The processors are slow and it would take time. If the whole rest of the folder names aren't exactly the same, it won't work.
You should either create the M3U based on the real files, on the player, or you should make sure the directory structure on the player is identical to the one on the PC.
