Import m3u playlists? - barvaz - 2013-03-11

Hello,

I have many m3u playlists that are stored on my NAS with paths relative to the location of the playlist on the NAS filesystem (so I can use them from various locations/devices). In XBMC, I add a source to my music library through SMB but I also want to play my playlists. I know I can just add the location of the playlists as source but then I can only access them as files and lose all library features.

What's the best way to import these playlists so I can find them under "playlists" and see them as library? Also, shuffle in the XBMC remote doesn't seem to work on playlists like that, do normal playlists support shuffle?

Thanks!
