XSPF parsing fails when dealing with relative paths
Alô,
XSPF support in VLC is not working 100%. It works fine with the absolute paths of URIs (e.g. http://whatever), but not with relative paths (e.g. ../Theora-vids/southpark.ogv). Remember that as a replacement for M3U, XSPF does relative paths as well, so please make that work.
The XSPF spec specifies how to deal with this[1], and Xiph provides a reference C/C++ library[2] under the New BSD License, which may help you on this task.
Good luck.
