Topic: Import a text file as a playlist?
I have a text file (generated by broadcast music scheduling software) that has one filename per line, separated by a CR/LF.

Is there a way to import this as a playlist into VDJ?

If I copy it to the playlists folder, it doesn't show up unless I rename it to M3U, at which point it's a blank playlist.

I could write a utility to convert it to a proper M3U but I'm just wondering if VDJ has a basic text import function built in already.

Ah - Renaming it to a M3U works. The problem is in my file; the music scheduling software pads the filename with empty space at the end of the line. Will have to write a script to take care of that. Please consider this resolved!
