Playlist Export Tool
About
In the form of a Songbird addon, this utility allows you to save your Songbird playlists for use in another media player.
I developed this addon mainly to satisfy a feature that I felt was missing after having moved from Winamp to Songbird.
Supported playlist formats are M3U and PLS.
Due to the yet-to-be-determined fate of this addon, it is unknown whether or not there will be support for other playlist formats. Stay tuned!
No downloads for the Playlist Export Tool extension are available on this site yet. Instead, you can install the addon from Songbird Addons.
Development of this addon is currently inactive due to time allocation issues.
Requirements: Songbird 0.3-1.4.0 and 1.5.0 alpha nightly builds
