Description Loïc Minier 2004-10-13 12:40:24 UTC 
This is Debian bug <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=257034>.

1. launch rhythmbox, create a new playlist
2. drop songs in the playlist
3. save playlist as "foo.plist"
4. remove playlist
5. load playlist from file "foo.plist"

an empty new playlist is created.

Tracing the source for a while made me undestand you need to name your playlist
.pls, or their mime type isn't detected properly as "audio/x-scpls".

The default mime type is text/plain for a playlist file saved under a different
name than .pls.  It would be nice to repair the parsing function to handle
text/plain containing [playlist] gracefully instead of expecting a .ra file
(real audio).

It would also be a good thing to force/suggest people to save to .pls if it's
the only extension supported for playlists.

It was a dup of

I'm closing this bug.
