Read m3u playlist with VLC

Hello,

As a Neuf subscriber, I've been streaming some channels using VLC for several months without any issues. I know how to create an m3u playlist and play it with VLC.
Then, earlier, I unfortunately decided to "update" my playlist by retrieving a more recent list online from some guy named narci12, and since then, not only does my old list (which I had obtained from narci12 back then) no longer work, but others that I had saved also don’t work anymore!
I really don't know what happened...!
I tried using an audio m3u playlist (a radio) and that works, but the TV doesn't!
The playlists seem fine, though - I copied and pasted the information into a .txt file and then renamed it to .m3u, is that correct? But I can't open any list in VLC!
Similarly, I had a saved playlist in the preferences and that one doesn't work either, while before it used to play automatically when opening VLC, I don't understand

In short, I think this might rather be an issue with VLC itself (rather than the lists), and I may have made a mistake with one of its settings.
So does anyone know where I could look in VLC to check if everything is working properly, please? Because with VLC, apart from playing a video (and watching TV a little...:), I'm totally clueless, it’s like Romanian to me

If anyone has a tip...! Thank you in advance to those who can provide me with some answers!
