First of all, thank you for adding exporting m3u8 playlists for handheld devices.
This will comfort a lot of people in Europe, Asia and the Spanish-speaking people.
It was a feature I needed for some time now. MrC had helped me to resolve my issue but it is accessible to everyone and gives a lot of different possibilities, like auto-syncing.
Please, add the possibility for m3u8 playlists to choose between relative paths and relative paths without leading dots.
