     74=== Playlist generators === 
     75The package vclt-tools contains several tools to generate playlists. Most common is the tool dir2vclt which generates a playlist from a given directory.

     77Other sources include the export function of any media player or radio stations providing a playlist on their website.

    7479=== Other Software === 
    7580There are a lot other software that can interact with rpld. This can be direct (e.g. a Perl script using Audio::RPLD) or indirect (e.g. using rpld-ctl). This is a list of tools that are often seen in rpld setups:

     88== Playlist generation == 
     89Unlike in media/audio players playlists are generated offline. This means they are not generated within rpld by telling it a directory. They are generated by external tools. Common tools are dir2vclt which creates a playlist based on a directory and xiph2vclt which creates a playlist from the Xiph station directory. Both tools are part of the vclt-tools. Another example is any media player used to export a playlist.
