Playlists don't seem to work?

If you're using a Windows computer to write or edit the files that might be the issue here. If the playlist is skipping the tracks, it means there was some issue finding the file. This can also happen if the filepaths in the playlist don't match how they appear on the Tangara (for example, if you use a tool like beets convert to copy to the SD card).

I'm on Mac OS, so the first suggestion shouldn't be an issue I don't think?
I did use beets to bring stuff over, but it should just be copying across my automatically sorted iTunes folder 1:1 so there'd be no difference - at a look over they seem the same file paths to me.

When manually assembling a text file with three copied and pasted paths it works perfectly, but I'm getting issues when exporting m3u playlists from iTunes. I've stripped all extraneous lines from the files, but longer playlists will crash my Tangara. I've attached .txt (because m3u isnt uploadable to the forum) versions of two playlists converted from m3u - the long version crashes the Tangara, and the short version quickly skips through all other tracks and plays the last one (track 19). What's happening here and how can I fix it?
