If that were the case, there would be no need to save playlists to files. But

Yes but do keep in mind that one can have multiple applications working
against the same playlist .
I do that sometimes using rythmbox to create and add to a playlist
later on I may add a song via the controller, with that wonderful
plugin or when it is in now playing.

Please bear in mind that the contents of playlists is certainly -not-
the focus of this work.

Can it still read .m3u playlists created from other programs without file:///
refs?
I think the point of SBS reading/writing .m3u playlists is so that they can be
shared. eg. import static playlists generated from MusicIP. Otherwise,
there's no point saving them to disk, because they could ju
I didn't test everything, but after removing the file:/// prefix, the
URL encoding alone caused playlists loaded into both programs to fail.
How is URL encoding a pathname that didn't come from the filesystem in
that form not an encoding process? And it must be decoded again
somewhere before it
Yes, it was intentional as no other format is guaranteed to be
reversible.
The problem is that one cannot know what character-set encoding is used
by the file system. It need not be the same as that of the system
locale. Therefore any kind of decode->encode process may mangle the
pathname.
I sup
Alan, is it intentional that saved playlists now use URL encoding and
file:/// type URLs instead of plain text paths? I think many people
may use the playlists created in SBS with other software. I just
tested one and it doesn't play in either foobar2000 or Winamp.

There is a task, roughly covered by bug 16683, to get to grips with all
the problems in SbS associated with use of file names and directory
names which contain non-ascii characters.
This is focussed on the audio library. It is intended to cover scanning
and browse-music-folder (BMF) functionality
