Hi,

I read a previous post where this was briefly mentioned in it and was told that is for other programs to do. But since Lidarr is changing the layout of the files to fit a specific format it breaks all existing m3u files.

So it would be handy for Lidarr to create m3u files when it's doing the organizing. Or of course as chosen by the user.

If this feature is ever implemented, it would also be nice to have an option to automatically create playlists from the Spotify playlists in my import lists.

I recently broke all my playlists by doing a mass rename, so I am giving a +1 for this feature

Sad to see it's been almost 5 years since this was created. I've just recently decided to install lidarr... I've been avoiding this moment during years because I knew what would happen: I would loose all my manually created playlists. Not a big deal since I have most of them in Spotify, so I can easily track the artists of my playlists, but I really miss the option to re-create those playlists.

This needs more attention.
