Auto Play
« on: June 09, 2010, 10:22:36 AM »
I wasn't able to find what I was looking for in the manual so I thought I would ask here.

I have a Sansa e200 with Rockbox installed.  When I turn on my player, about 90% of the time I want to start one specific play list.  Is there a way to have this automatically start playing when I turn the unit on?  Sometimes when I am driving its a pain to go through and select the file I am after.

Thanks.

There is a button to "resume playback" or you can just set the start screen to be the WPS. The only time you should ever need to go through and select a specific file is if there isn't a playlist to resume.

Both "resuming playback" and setting the start screen are covered in the manual.

I will certainly take a look at that, thx for the feedback.

What Llorean has described will only work if your "one specific playlist" is the current playlist.  I don't think there is a way to start "one specific playlist" if that was not the playlist in use when you turned your device off.
