Details
M3U (MP3 URL
) is a playlist format for media files and streams, initially developed for MP3 and Windows players.
Basic M3U is a plain text file containing one media ressource per line, which can be a relative or absolute filename or an URL.
It may contain commenting lines, which must start with a #
. Some older players expect each line to be terminated by a CRLF.
Extended M3U files add a syntax for special commenting lines, to store Metadata like artist and title for each media ressource.
