playlist file don't play since 1.1.2

Postby muscovado » 02 Aug 2010 18:20

Hi there,

since version 1.1.2 the player changed it's behavior while adding tracks per playlist files like m3u. When you still have some content in the player-tracklist and add more tracks per m3u-file, NOT the new tracks from the m3u is being played but the song on top of the tracklist. :(

This "feature" kills all my routine, would love to see it undone!!!

How do you add them?
via double-click on the file with the file manager (Finder)

I added you an example .m3u below, but I don't think that the files are the problem. All of mine were created with a VLC over years. The prefix "file://" of newer files do not change the behavior. It's just that the player do not start playing the first track of the file but the first of the vlc playlist and the newly added songs from a .m3u are the last songs.

In 1.1.3 the bug is fixed.
