After some digging, I noticed this line in play.php : 

if ( stristr(strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']),"windows") ) echo
"#EXTM3U\r\n";

which only gives extended m3u info to windows clients....why? Is there a
problem with non-windows people getting this info? Xmms seems to read
#EXTINF just fine...
