A playlist is just a list of textual links to the music on your drives. 
As you have discovered, in order to find the music, SC needs to "see"
the path to the files in the same way that it sees the path to your
music files.

What I'm not clear on from your email is what the path of your music
library is in Squeezecenter?  When you set up your music library - what
did you give as the top level folder - F:/<MusicFolder>/ or something
else?

So, for example, if you have given Squeezecenter the path "//NAS/Share"
as your music library, then you need to change the start of each path in
the playlist from F:/<MusicFolder>/Song.mp3 to //NAS/Share/song.mp3 or
whatever.  Easy to do using find and replace.

However, if your music library path in Squeezecenter is
F:/<MusicFolder> then that path should work fine for the playlists.  If
it isn't I would test the format by creating a playlist in Squeezecenter
of a few tracks, saving it and then opening it up in a text editor like
notepad or wordpad.  What is the path that Squeezecenter has used for
the playlist and is it different from what Winamp uses?

The final thought I have is that if the path in the winamp playlist is
"F:/..." then this is a relative path, and may not work - Squeezecenter
needs absolute paths I believe.  You need to find and replace "F:/..."
with "F:/<MusicFolder>" - then do a playlist rescan and the playlist
should work

Also, make sure you have a Playlist Directory set in Squeezecenter.
