Wobuzz m3u Format Extension (WOBUZZM3U, .wbz.m3u)
The WOBUZZM3U file format is used by the Wobuzz audio player. It works similar to EXTM3U, it adds data to an .m3u playlist using comments. This way, the playlists should be still importable by any other audio player that supports the M3U format.

Header (#WOBUZZM3U)
- The format's header looks like this:
#WOBUZZM3U
- Currently, (Wobuzz version 0.1a2) Wobuzz has no problem with having a playlist in its library which has no WOBUZZM3U-header, but using a header is recommended to be able to identify a WOBUZZM3U faster.
Track Metadata Specifiers
- Track metadata specifiers can specify track metadata like title, artist and album for the track defined in the next line that is not a WOBUZZM3U-parameter. Metadata specifiers make a playlist load way faster. If not all metadata is set for a track, Wobuzz will try to get it from the audio file. If a track doesn't have a specific tag, for example, the track has no album, just specify a blank text because reading metadata from the audio file takes more time. An empty specifier would look like this:
#TRACK_ALBUM:- (Don't forget the space at the end.)
- Example of a completely specified track:
#TRACK_TITLE: Time Lapse #TRACK_ARTIST: TheFatRat #TRACK_ALBUM: #TRACK_GENRE: Electro House /home/user/Music/TheFatRat - Time Lapse.mp3
