yes, this is pls-format, but it should detect it anyway ...

hm ... how about asx then falling back onto asf if it don't succeeds ...

Debug code for what ?
It would have been more clear to comment out the following code-lines, as it
was same effect, but then one could notice, yes there is something wrong or
so ... :-(
Anyway, I think it would be nicer to have a demux_playlist.c, which would be
called before all other demuxers, and which tries to detect if it is a
plain/text-file (e.g. no binary characters at the beginning) and then tries
out all playlist types, as there are tried anyway, when it assumes it could
be type playlist ...
But I think here is only some redesign possible :-(
Of course after 0.90 ;-)
