pCloud playlist import doesn't find any media

Issue description:

Hi,

I recently saved all of my music files in a folder in pCloud, and I can play them just fine. However, I wanted to import my .m3u playlists but no media is found, so the playlist import fails.

I placed my .m3u are placed in the same folder as my other music files, and that their directories in the .m3u are listed correctly.

Logs:

Additional information:

I also posted contents of one .m3u playlist file to show that the directories are indeed correctly listed.

Reproduction steps:

Steps to get the issue:
Files > pCloud > Music folder > playlist file - click the 3-dots > Import
No matter if Read-only is activated or not, no media will be found in the playlist import and it will not work.

Media provider:

Any provider

Starting with / means that it’s absolute path, not relative to the playlist.

So since the media are now in a subfolder they can’t be found.

You can use ./ to say it’s relative to the playlist or the actual full path that you can see by pressing 3 dots on a song then details.

Yeah, you’re right, I dunno why I didn’t try this actually.

I tried with ./ and with absolute path too, but it still doesn’t work. For instance, here’s the path of one music file, and the .m3u playlist with absolute paths for each file.
