Is there a build that you can queue tunes in the current playlist?
« on: November 18, 2007, 02:58:45 AM »
I've tried a lot of diferent builds and am currently using the CPCHAN build because it seemed the most advanced and it seems OK, but is there a build that lets you do a quick click back to the current playlist and queue a tune within there without having to go all the way back to the database to queue a tune, or am I missing something about doing that?
ROCKBOX does ROX! over the original firmware.  I had read so many great things about ROCKBOX that I started installing builds instead of the original firmware right away because of the great reviews and I have been happy so far and it has been relatively bug free.  Hope someone has an answer to my queuing request!

1)  Unsupported builds are unsupported

2)  I don't understand the question.  How can you queue a song from the playist unless it is already there?  In order to add a song to the playlist at some point you have to go to either the filetree or the database to select which song you want.

Please do not ask for support for unofficial builds here. For question about my build please repost the question either in my thread on this board or better yet, my thread at ABi and I will answer it.

I believe the OP meant enqueuing a track that exist in the playlist while viewing the playlist which can be done with the "Move" option. A bit cumbersome, but doable.

Sorry. keep forgetting that this forum software doesn't seem to offer a threaded view. Just trying the maintain the threading since one reply is to the OP, and one to you.

Hi Chan,
I tried to post at ABI, but kept getting an error say maximum character post is 1 character! so I tried here. And yes, I was referring to setting up a queue within the currently playing list by selecting the tunes within the current playlist.  i.e. setting up an order on the fly and not using the cumbersome "move" procedure, just a queue click would be nice. And I am not necessarily referring to Chans version, if there was a way to do it with the supported Rockbox, then I would use it.  It's not the version that matters to me, it is whether or not there is one that can do it!

Thanks

Oh, I thought that bug was fixed- it only happens with IE. I have contacted the admins at ABi.

It is not possible with any build right now, but it is not hard to put a function like that in the context menu. For now, you can post in this thread:

if you want to continue this discussion.
