Description Thibaut Cousin 2003-11-16 12:15:53 UTC

Version:           2.2.1 (using KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-99-athlon

A lot of playlist files (plain text ones, not XML) found on the internet have comments starting with #, usually on the first line.

At least in KDE 3.1.4, it seems Noatun doesn't recognize comments, so when I open the playlist there is a spurious entry in the playlist manager.

Is it possible to correct that misbehavior, please?

Thank you for your attention!

Fixed in CVS, KDE 3.2 will have support for it. Btw, that format is called EXTM3U and was probably introduced by WinAmp 2.x.

That's good news. :-) I'm not runing KDE from CVS HEAD, so sorry for not having been able to check.

Keep up the great work!
