About:
Libxspf is a C++ library designed for parsing and writing XSPF (XML Shareable Playlist Format) files. It provides a robust API for developers to integrate playlist functionality into their multimedia applications. The library handles the complexities of the XML format, allowing for easy manipulation of playlist data.

Key Features:

C++ implementation for performance
Supports both reading and writing XSPF playlists
Compliant with the XSPF specification
Provides a clean API for integration

Use Cases:

Building custom media players with playlist support
Converting between different playlist formats
Server-side processing of user-uploaded playlists

Alternatives:

libplist – Focuses on Apple's Plist format, not XSPF
GStreamer – A full multimedia framework that includes playlist parsing, but is much heavier than Libxspf
