To create a playlist

A Playlist is a text file that can be created in any text editor with an extension of

loop

http http://192.168.12.x/movie1.mpg http http://192.168.12.x/movie2.mpg http http://192.168.12.x/movie3.mpg

For a Playlist that is not looped, list the desired content without the keyword "loop."
