Bump, just wanted to suggest this again as it appears very straight forward to implement and would be a great help for a project I am working on. A playlist file is just a simple text file saved as pls and with the following example format:
[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=03
File1=C:\File1location
File2=C:\File2location
File3=C:\File3location
I can't imagine this being very difficult for Skybox to open over an SMB share, assuming the files are in the correct location. If you could add it to the roadmap I would be extremely grateful.
