[vlc-devel] Re: [PATCH] m3u playlist import and export, version 2

[Daniel Stränger]

Hi!
I forgot to free psz_author in the first patch version.
This mail comes with the corrected patch.

Bye

>hi all!
>i've recognized that loading and saving a m3u playlist does not use the

>In 0.8.1 the playlist entry's extra information was saved as:
>   #EXTINF:time,artist,name
>Now, in 0.8.2 it's saved as:
>   #EXTINF:time,artist - name
>
>but during the load of a playlist and parsing the EXTINF-line the part 
>of the artist was neglected.
>i've corrected this misbehavior as follows:
>   * The delimiter character between time, artist and title is the comma!
>   * If the artist contains a comma, the comma is escaped by a

>also be escaped
>   * in the Demux-function the artist *and* the title are parsed and
