How can I change this? I have tried browsing to find the minimserver, but can't find anything obvious to choose (recommended programs are VLC or Windows media). Alternatively, how do I get the m3u file to save as something other than a winamp type?

The highlighted file in this screenshot is correct (it has an .m3u file type). All the other files in this folder are incorrect (it looks like they probably have .txt filetypes). In the screenshot attached to your other post showing a BBC Radio folder, it looks like you have put one of the incorrect files (with a .txt filetype) in the BBC Radio folder, which won't work.

To make it easier for you to see the actual filetypes of your files, it would be a good idea to change your Windows Explorer Folder options (View tab) to untick "Hide extensions for known file types". To show the Folder Options dialog, select "Organize" from any Explorer window, then select "Folder and search options".
