That's good to know. The reason I like VLC is because I can just store some mp3's in a folder and play them. I don't want a music library or anything like that.

iTunes also plays m3u files as well.

Actually it does a great job on playing m3u files.

Hello. I know that the VLC player plays .m3u playlists. I know this because an internet radio network that I listen to uses a .m3u file and VLC plays it fine.

Hi,


On Windows, our entire music library is based on M3U playlists. We have a hard drive dedicated just for music, and a directory on the main hard drive with playlists. When we run a playlist, the proper files play in Winamp. What's the easiest way to accommodate this on the Mac? I tried making up an M3U file with paths like Macintosh HD:users:JaysonSmith:public:music:Tommy Collins:a.mp3 and so on, and it's not working to just open that playlist up. Itunes is opening, and is offering tons of other stuff. Is there a very simple program for just playing music files, which doesn't have all the stuff Itunes has, or is there a way to do this in Itunes and still use M3U playlists? Also, how do you properly specify the complete path to a file? Thanks.
Jayson
