It used to be "M3U8 Playlist, relative file paths", which was never a problem within actions before. When I changed that to "M3U8 Playlist relative file paths" the action ran without a problem. Weird. Is this a bug in v2.89a? So don't use a comma in your export definition name if you want to use that in an action... The "v.a." part was not the problem. Thanks for your input. I hope people with the same problem can find their solution here. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/generate-playlist-via-action-fails/42478)._
