Kevin,

Thanks for the link. Looks like I had the format correct. Although I have
artist, album, and track info in a different order than your example - mine
matches this line from play.php:

$playlist .= "#EXTINF:$tr_time,$tr_name - $ar_name ($al_name)\r\n";

...but apparently everything after the time is treated as the song title, so
you can format it however you like.

- Jason
