I've had a little more success.
First line has to be
#EXTM3U
Then you can add your songs - but they must have a space between them.
IE -
#EXTM3U
foofoo.mp3
foobar.mp3
barfoo.mp3
barbar.mp3
thisisreallyFUBAR.mp3
Furthermore - it seems to want to want dos line breaks - so,
awk 'sub("$", "\r")' unixfile > dosfile
Then I can select the playlist and it shows songs - but when I tried to
play the list, the darned thing froze on me.
I guess I'll try that UTF16-LE thing next and see if maybe that's why.
I have to wonder who the hell programmed it and how they got the job.
It seems majorly broken to me.
