M3U playlists HTML encoded
BUG: Saving playlist as M3U or M3U8 saves the relative path names with HTML encoding, which is then only recognized by VLC.
Using VLC v 3.0.16 on Windows 10.
While I could see the argument for HTML encoding, it is not recognized by any of the other media players I've tried:
- Media Player Classic v1.9.19.42
- Windows media player v12.0.18362.2158
- (Via Navidrome) Ultrasonic v2.24.0
- (Via Navidrome) Subsonic v4.8
- (Via Synology DSM) DS Audio v3.15.2
For example, this is what is generated:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:275,Hans Zimmer - Time
Hans%20Zimmer/Hans%20Zimmer%20-%20Time.mp3
#EXTINF:257,Hans Zimmer - Ride
Hans%20Zimmer/Hans%20Zimmer%20-%20Ride.mp3
And this is what ALL of the other media players require:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:275,Hans Zimmer - Time
Hans Zimmer/Hans Zimmer - Time.mp3
#EXTINF:257,Hans Zimmer - Ride
Hans Zimmer/Hans Zimmer - Ride.mp3
