Saved M3U playlists unplayable
#1
First off: I'm still on Gotham, but I haven't found any mentions of this problem, so I'm not sure if it still exists in Helix or not. If not, I'll just wait until I can update (as soon as my precious skin is updated).

I'm having some issues with saving music playlists from within XBMC. I can open one I've made in Winamp containing the following entry
Code:
#EXTINF:383,London Elektricity - Rewind (Lotus Eater on a Pale Fountain Mix)
E:\Musikk\Hospital Records\NHSBUNDLE3 - Plastic Surgery Final Reconstruction Bundle\35-London Elektricity - Rewind (Lotus Eater on a Pale Fountain Mix).mp3

This plays fine in XBMC, but if I try to save the playlist as, say, test.m3u from XBMC, I get this
Code:
#EXTINF:0,35. London Elektricity - Rewind (Lotus Eater on a Pale Fountain Mix)
E:MusikkHospital RecordsNHSBUNDLE3 - Plastic Surgery Final Reconstruction Bundle35-London Elektricity - Rewind (Lotus Eater on a Pale Fountain Mix).mp3

The new playlist is effectively unplayable, both in XBMC and Winamp and any other player for that matter.
Why is this happening?

If it is of interest, my advancedsettings.xml contains the following for music.
Note that the files are local and not on an smb share.
Code:
<music>
    <default pathversion="1"></default>
    <source>
        <name>Musikk</name>
        <path pathversion="1">E:\Musikk\</path>
        <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
    </source>
    <source>
        <name>Playlists</name>
        <path pathversion="1">C:\Users\Kantana\Documents\Playlists\</path>
        <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
    </source>
</music>

Sorry for bumping, but does anyone know a fix for this?
It's literally impossible to use the playlist feature with this problem.

I realize I left out the specific version I'm using, which is 13.2.
