XML Shareable Playlist Format (XSPF), pronounced "spiff", is an XML-based playlist format for digital media, sponsored by the Xiph.Org Foundation. Lucas Gonze of Yahoo.com/Webjay.org originated the format in 2004.

XSPF is a data format for sharing the kind of playlist that can be played on a personal computer or portable device. In the same way that any user on any computer can open any web page, XSPF is intended to provide portability for playlists.

Features

* A playlist format like M3U or ASX
* MIME content-type of application/xspf+xml
* Patent-free (no patents by the primary authors)
* Specification under the Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 2.5 license
* XML, like Atom
* Unicode support
* Cross-platform support

History

XSPF was created by an ad-hoc working group which kicked off in February 2004, achieved rough consensus on version 0 in April 2004, worked on implementations and fine tuning throughout summer and fall 2004, and declared the tuned version to be version 1 in January 2005.

XSPF is not yet an Internet standard, and is not a recommendation of any standards body besides Xiph.Org Foundation.

Content Resolution

Traditionally playlists have been composed of file paths that pointed to individual titles. This allowed a playlist to be played locally on one machine or shared if the listed file paths were URLs accessible to more than one machine (i.e. on the web). XSPF's meta-data rich open format has permitted a new kind of playlist sharing called content resolution.

In the simplest terms, content resolution is the local recreation of a playlist based on meta-data. A content resolver will open XSPF playlists and search a catalog for every title with , and tags, then recreate the playlist with the available matching titles. A catalog may be a collection of media files on a local disk, a music subscription service like Yahoo! Music Unlimited or some other searchable archive. The end result are shareable playlists that are not tied to a specific collection or service.<p><strong>oftware</strong><p>* <A HREF="537139">Amarok</a><br>* <A HREF="1738760">Audacious</a><br>* <r>Herrie</r> - reading/writing XSPF playlists.
