Title:
  Rhythmbox will not play M3U playlists

Status in Rhythmbox:
  New
Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: rhythmbox

  I have a media server at home, running GNUMP3D, which serves M3U files
  to clients and streams the playlists to said client in a program such
  as iTunes. Today, from work, I tried downloading an M3U file to play
  in rhythmbox. When rhythmbox tries to open the M3U file, it says that
  it needs to search for a text/uri-list decoder, then fails to find
  one. Because of this, it never actually plays the contents of the M3U
  file. If you drag the M3U file into the playlists section of the
  sidebar, its name shows up as "-" and no music shows up in the
  playlist.

  I know that the M3U files from my server are working fine, since I can
  open them in a text editor, and see their contents. They also play
  properly in Totem and iTunes.
