Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
If we're going to allow any playlist manipulation while stopped, shouldn't there then be an option to clear a playlist, or start a new playlist without starting playback then?
The first insert starts playback (but doesn't enter the WPS). This is in line with the theory "The playlist isn't there (or 'active') when playback has stopped."
There's no reason to have an active playlist if playback isn't happening, though.
If you need to prepare one in advance
the PC is far better, and even then if you don't want to hear anything, don't plug in your headphones
but if you're starting a new, empty playlist on a player, the assumption is that you're playing it.
I don't quite understand what exactly you're asking, though.
On several occasions, I have had the need to prepare a small playlist with the player, and not have it start playing the first inserted song immediately. I think it would be a quite neat feature.
If that's the case, what do we want to do with the stop button? In a case where it doesn't make the playlist inactive any more, it's really lost its purpose.
... I want to be able to start creating a playlist without having to play it first...
