Deleting music

<< < (3/3)

Chronon:
So, can you confirm that the problem was files stuck in the .Trashes folder by OSX?  Did updating after running Disk Tidy work?

Regarding deleting music while playing (WPS sub-menu) – it’s confusing. This operation does delete file from file system however song is still present in currently played playlist. Most interesting even after playlist advances to different song it still possible to come back and play deleted one!

I’m not sure if this is indented functionality or not. Marking currently played song for deletion is a nice feature but I believe it should work differently:
-   delete while playing should mark current song for deletion (same dialog as of now). Repeated delete operation should allow to “un-mark” (again using same dialog)
-   as soon as current song is over (stop, rew, ff, off, etc.) if it’s marked for deletion than file is deleted and song is removed from the playlist.

Yeah, it's still in the buffer, but the file is gone.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Rockbox does not attempt to flush the buffer until it's nearing the end of it, i.e., it's forced to get new data because it's gone though everything buffered.
