SD Card Playlists - .m4a not recognised

[mpc]

Has anyone managed to come up with a fix that will allow SD card playlists see .m4a files?
I have a shed load of music on a SD card and the majority is .m4a format.
The files will play fine in the album folder but the playlist will just not see them.
Any help appreciated.

I believe you gotta convert it man. I went through the same shit with mine.

you have to convert them, i just installed my rns-e and had to convert them to mp3 as the m4a files wouldnt play

Yep - you can download free MP3 converters, but it's a huge pain. I'm just doing the dension ipod interface and forgetting the sd cards.
