Comment 1 for bug 1436030

Hi Felix, thanks for taking the time to file this bug report and for making Ubuntu better! The service that tells the app which files it can play (mediascanner2) is supposed to be skipping all playlist files, including m3u files (as it already skips pls files). Currently, you should not expect playlist files or internet streams to play within the app. Playing from a streaming source may be something that gets added in the future, but there are currently no plans to do so at the moment.
