Fixed

Playlist .m3u8 files were being written into the first track's album folder instead of the download root (#138)

If you download a playlist with Create playlist folder turned off, the generated .m3u8 should land in your download root. Instead it was ending up inside the album folder of whichever track happened to finish first, which made it easy to conclude no playlist file had been created at all.

All four M3U recording paths shared a single expression that fell back to the album folder whenever no playlist folder existed. That fallback is correct for album .m3u8 files (added in #121) and both kinds share one tracker, so it could not simply be removed. The tracker now knows which kind it is:

  • Album M3U — still written into the album folder, unchanged
  • Playlist M3U — only a real playlist folder sets the location; otherwise the download root

Affected every entry point, including the link analyzer and favourites.

Thanks to @SchwanzusLongus for the report, and particularly for tracking down where the files had actually gone — that detail identified the cause immediately.
