Clear playlist/delete m3u

Postby jsd » 02 Feb 2012 19:43

I use VLC with the SubSonic Media Streamer. It works great, but there is a tiny irritation that I would love to be able to resolve. First, when I play an album from SubSonic, it downloads an m3u file which it sends to VLC. VLC appends the contents of the m3u to the current playlist. Is it possible to have it remove the previous contents before loading the new m3u? Second, is it possible to have VLC delete the m3u file from the hard disk once it has loaded it? My Downloads folder is now full of play(1).m3u, play(2).m3u, etc...

You should force downloads of your m3u in your temp folder.
