I have a VLC playlist (.xspf) of over a 100 songs all scattered all over my computer. I'm looking for a way to save this playlist and all it's songs to another folder - flash drive, external drive or just a different location in my computer. How can I do this?
EDIT
The xspf playlist is in XML and is such a format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/" xmlns:vlc="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/ns/0/" version="1">
<title>Playlist</title>
<trackList>
<track>
<location>file:///home/subroot/Music/3%20Days%20Grace%20-%20Wake%20Up.mp3</location>
<title>Wake Up</title>
<creator>3 Days Grace</creator>
<album>Three Days Grace</album>
<trackNum>10</trackNum>
<annotation> </annotation>
<duration>206036</duration>
<extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0">
