I'm using Foobar2000 on an Intel Mac. The music resides and slimserver
runs on another mac. The problem was that playlists generated in
slimserver on that computer didn't have quite the right directory path
names for use in FB2K over the network on the Intel Mac. Slim and FB2K
seem to handle symbolic links a little differently in this situation.

To solve this problem, a young friend of mine wrote a little Ruby
script to convert the pathnames to turn a Slim playlist into a foobar
playlist for use on another computer on the network. Here it is, if
anyone wants it. You will have to change the particular path name to
suit your situation, but that's pretty straight forward. To upload it
as an attachment here, I had to give it a .txt extention, just remove
that, it should be called m3u.rb .
