[REQ] Create Exported Playlists (e.g. m3u) With Relative Paths (MM4 behavior) [#18232]

Hello!

I like MM4 and looking forward to the time where I can change to MM5 :)
Unfortunately MM5 exports .m3u playlists with absolute paths instead of relative path as MM4 does. This prevents me from syncing my folder structure with another program to my mobile device what I prefer over syncing with MM resulting in not having my individual folder structure on the mobile.

This should at least be an option similar to the one in the playlist sync options.
I think I could only sync the playlists with MM5 after I synced the files with the other program, but this would result in a more complex process and is fragile somehow.

Would be great to have that (again)!

Cheers
Thomas

Exact same request here ;)

Another bug is that the playlist is exported in ANSI so every title with accent (or special characters) sorry i'm french will failed when importing in Airsonic...

Please save playlist in UTF8, and with relative path.
