Thanks for the report.

I was not sure what to do with this.

I am collecting a lot of new features and plan to add them as junior jobs open for new contributors. This one will be a part of that.

Ran into the same issue when attempting to play `http://somafm.com/groovesalad130.pls`.

```

PowerManagementInterface::uninhibitDBusCallFinished QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown", "The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files")
```

At the point I attempted to play the `pls` stream I saw the `PowerManagementInterface::inhibitDBusCallFinishedGnomeWorkspace` console output.

Same behavior when running version 20.04.1 from Flathub.

This would really be a great addition as there is no feedback shown to the user and most users would have a hard time finding the real URL or extracting it out of the pls file -- in addition this does not allow larger streaming radios to provide multiple, redundant endpoints.

Start with a git commit like "    ElisaMainWindow.qml playlist file dialog add "pls" filter

Continue by extracting as a class the part "    auto newTracks = DataTypes::EntryDataList{};
    for (const auto &l : data.split('\n')) {
        const auto &line = QString::fromUtf8(l);
        const auto &url = line.startsWith(QStringLiteral("file:/")) ? QUrl(line) : QUrl::fromLocalFile(line);
        newTracks.push_back({{{{DataTypes::ElementTypeRole, ElisaUtils::FileName},
            {DataTypes::ResourceRole, url}}}, {}, {}});
    }".

Name the class something like FromFileToTracksComputer. Entry point method signature in pseudocode: "list of DataTypes::EntryDataList FromFileToTracks(const QString &filePath, const QString &fileBody);".
Fix support for *.m3u in this class, e.g. "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iptv-org/iptv/master/streams/af.m3u does not show entry title correctly".
Add support for *.pls in this class.
