How do I import m3u playlists from GoogleDrive into CloudPlayer

Hello

I have purchased CloudPlayer and it is displaying all my music stored on GoogleDrive which is great!

However, I also have some .m3u playlists stored on GoogleDrive (just in the MyDrive area but the app seemed to import one but then I have updated the .m3u file as well as adding another new one and I can't get the updated or new one into CloudPlayer. 

I have Local Media Auto-Import selected and I have also tried manually importing playlists but it does not see them.

Am I doing something wrong to achieve this.  I believe it's possible as it's mentioned in the following post:

https://support.doubletwist.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360048770611-Is-it-possible-to-edit-a-CloudPlayer-playlist-on-a-Windows-computer-?input_string=Can%20I%20import%20m3u%20playlists%20from%20GoogleDrive%20into%20CloudPlayer

However, I don't quite understand the last sentence in the response. It seems to contradict itself.

I don't know if it makes a difference but at one point I had it set to Playlist Auto-Import from Classic Player as I was going to go that route to get my itunes playlist but have decided I prefer the CloudPlayer approach and so unticked this again.

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks

  Hello. At this time, CloudPlayer will not import changes or updates for a previously imported M3U playlist. We are looking to add this option in a future update. As a workaround, you can delete the playlist in CloudPlayer and during the next cloud scan, it will be imported again.
