Does RockBox put some kind of encoding on the m3u8 file that I am unable to see in notepad?  Because I just copied the text of the m3u8 file that does work into a new m3u8 file (using notepad), and that file doesn't work.  This doesn't make any sense.

GodEater:
Please don't double post. Use the modify button.

This won't have anything to do with line endings - Rockbox doesn't care.

mdouet:
Well it's got to be some kind of hidden text that I am unable to see because creating a file with EXACTLY the same contents as the file that works, doesn't work.  Why does this have to be so complicated, I'm a software developer and I can't get this thing to work, how is a normal person supposed to use this firmware?

EDIT:  Is it just not possible to create a m3u file using notepad?  If not, does anyone know of a program that will convert from pla to m3u?  Surely someone has figured this out....

GodEater:
Can we have a side by side comparison of a list that does work, and a list that doesn't.

Plenty of other people have managed this in the past - it's not difficult.

mdouet:
You're wrong, if it were easy I wouldn't be bothering you about this.   :P

Here is a file that does work:


--- Code: ---/MUSIC/The Shipwrecks/CAG Foreplay/-1 - CAG Foreplay #17_ Rise of the Anti-Halo.mp3
/MUSIC/IGN Staff _podcasts@ign.com_/IGN Games Podcasts/-1 - Game Scoop! Ep. 50_ Gold Anniversary.mp3
/MUSIC/Destructoid/Podtoid - Destructoid.com Video Game Podcast/-1 - Podtoid 32 - Bloody coup.mp3

--- End code ---

And here is a file that does NOT work:


--- Code: ---/MUSIC/IGN Staff _podcasts@ign.com_/IGN Games Podcasts/-1 - Game Scoop! Ep. 50_ Gold Anniversary.mp3
/MUSIC/Destructoid/Podtoid - Destructoid.com Video Game Podcast/-1 - Podtoid 32 - Bloody coup.mp3
/MUSIC/The Shipwrecks/CAG Foreplay/-1 - CAG Foreplay #17_ Rise of the Anti-Halo.mp3

--- End code ---

Good luck.   :P
