playlists

I exported my my iTunes playlists to .m3u files before I got rid of Win7 completely.

Now I would like to import the playlists into Rhythmbox, but can't. My playlists contain windows filenames (e.g. D:\music....) instead of linux filenames (e.g. /mnt/music....).

The music is still stored on the exact same disk and folder as it was under windows.

I need a script to convert the file names, can anyone help?
