Description Jaume Sabater 2011-07-21 09:12:41 UTC 
Hello everyone!

My media folder ~/Music consists of a number of folders, each with several MP3 files and one M3U file. Not all folders are albums, but I have custom folders depending on my own taste at organizing music.

When I use the Import Music feature of Banshee, only MP3 files are imported, and later I have to manually add all playlists (M3U files) one at a time, which is a very time consuming task.

I would like to see an option or extension that would scan all the folders and add all the M3U playlists it finds. It would be extremely useful when syncing to portable devices such as the iPhone, so that you already have the playlists and the music files. Like two copies of the same, one on the PC, the other on the iPhone.

Thanks in advance.
