How to add, play PLS file with Wondershare Radio Recorder?

What’s PLS?

PLS is a computer file format that stores multimedia playlists. It is a more expressive format than basic M3U, as it can store (cache) information on the song title and length — extended M3U supports this, too. With PLS version 2, playlists also include a PLS version declaration.


Microsoft Windows and its software does not automatically detect PLS format and cannot run it. iTunes, Real player, Winamp, XMPlay, VLC media player and Foobar play PLS file without any extra codecs required. Windows Media Player classic with K-Lite codec installed does work with PLS format but still will not automatically detect it.
