Windows XP Pro SP3

I "run" album.m3u which is an ASCII file containing

------------- start of file
01 - 2112 i) Overture ii) the Temples of Syrinx iii) Discovery iv) Presentation v) Oracle the Dream vi) Soliloquy vii) Grand Finale.mp3
02 - A Passage to Bangkok.mp3
03 - The Twilight Zone.mp3
04 - Lessons.mp3
05 - Tears.mp3
06 - Something for Nothing.mp3
------------- end of file

Errors windows pops up, containing

This happens on all of the many m3u files I have tried. These worked just fine in 1.0.5. If I "run" individual mp3 files mentioned in the m3u file(s) VLC (either version) plays them just fine.

I guess I have to switch back to 1.0.5?

Use search.
This is a known issue which should be fixed in v1.1.1 coming soon.
