Files with the M3U8 extension are encoded audio playlists , which use the UTF-8 symbol encoding system. These are standard text files – they do not contain any real sound data, but only references to multimedia files or subfolders which store them.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the M3U8 file after converting to TEXT may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from M3U8 to TEXT to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting M3U8 to TEXT does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in M3U8 format, properly converted to a TEXT file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file M3U8 the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of M3U8 file to other than TEXT. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your M3U8 file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to TEXT on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the M3U8 file in its original format (without conversion to TEXT file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
