Amarok not taking account of m4a files when creating playlist files.

[Joerg Mertin]

Hi there,

FYI - I don't use any streams, only local music I bought in iTunes or
ripped private CD's.
However, I got it to work. I actually have deleted all my Amarok
configuration (Keeping only the downloaded cover arts, and then it worked.
Seems it had something to do with a configuration incompatibility (Note
- I have migrated all Amarok versions since the very first one always to
the next level).
The 100% cpu utilization went down now too.

Anyway, thx for your help.

Regards
Joerg
