[vdr] Re: Playlists in the MP3 plugin

[s.huelswitt@gmx.de (Stefan Huelswitt)]

Hi,

as a rule of thumb: create your playlists with the integrated
playlist editor. Playlist entries that cannot be created this way
are illegal anyways.

Quoting from the MANUAL file:
--- 8< ----
A playlist is a simple text file which contains the paths of the songs to play.
One path/filename on every line. The paths must be relative to the base
directory (e.g. if you have a MP3 file /mp3/rock/bon_jovi/sample.mp3 a proper
line in a playlist would be rock/bon_jovi/sample.mp3). All playlist must have
the extension ".m3u".
--- 8< ----

Ergo: the path must be relative (no leading /) and of course you
cannot go below the source base directory (a path "../file.mp3"
is illegal).

Some of these odities/restrictions are going to be lifted if I
find the time & motivation to start a new development branch.
