.M3u playlists are broken again in current nightly 2017-05-24

Postby smarty123 » 25 May 2017 12:06

m3u playlists are read, entries shown but on playing errors occur because vlc adds a %0D to each file name

Saving this playlist with current nightly %0D AND a blank line is added to the file

Another bug i noticed: blanks are converted to %20 when creating or saving an m3u playlist with the nightlies since april.

Most players do not interpret the %20 and will not play. Please revert to the blank spaces like it was before (til end of 2016 i think)

PLease report bugs.
But tbh, I'd argue that the second part is normal.
