    Playlist editing with spreadsheets?

    I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to put the playlist into a spreadsheet for easy editing and organizing?
    I was thinking it was a csv text format, but after playing with it have figured out it is not.

    Thanks,

    needs to be UTF-8 encoded (Unicode Transformation Format)... if put in a normal txt doc or a spreedsheet or anything else other then with UTF encoding , it will not work.
    I suppose you could take it to a spreedsheet but after all done, you would have to again encode it correctly and that may take some pre-editing, depending on what kind tags or deletions that the spreedsheet did to it.
    Even in a basic txt doc, if the UTF encoding is lost, then it will have to be again encoded correctly again before it will work as a workable m3u file.

    I see, that is a bit of a pain, huh?
    Thanks for the info!
