I was thinking about making an xml playlist exporter thats used for command-line purposes but i'm only semi-decent at c++ so if someone else is willing to take it up, i'd be happy to help any way i can.

The "lot of spaces" you're seeing is because you're looking at the playlist file in a text editor that doesn't properly read UTF16 Little Endian files.
I learned the UTF16 Little Endian part after some serious mucking around. That's the only text file encoding that centrafuse will read as a playlist. Real annoying.
I'm working on a C# DLL file which will allow you to read and write to the centrafuse playlist format. I'm also working on a C# dll which reads and writes windows media player playlists. Once both work well, I will make a C# program that does the converting. I'll probably make a GUI version and a command line version. We'll see how this goes.
At this point, I can write a CF3 playlist file no problem. Reading it will be extremely easy as well.
Windows media player playlists should actually be a bit easier since C# has xml classes built in. I may even find a windows media player playlist reader already coded for C#. We'll see.
