Can't Play Songs After Bookmarking

(1/2) > >>

corel421:
I create a bookmark for a song.  Then I go back to the file browser.  If I open any file, rockbox plays the bookmark, not the file I opened. What is wrong?

Yotto:
Check the manual on bookmarking. In particular, the options for when and how to load bookmarks.

I personally set it to "ask"

corel421:
Opening a song that does not have a bookmark should never load a bookmark on a different song regardless of settings.

Yotto:
We (you and I) have differing opinions on that. As do the Rockbox developers.

Bookmarks are not on *SONGS*. They are on *PLAYLISTS*. If you open a song in a folder, Rockbox generates a playlist for you. If you make a bookmark of that playlist, Rockbox treats that folder like it's a playlist next time you select a song in it. If you choose (By setting the menu to do so) to load the bookmark, then the bookmark will load. If you choose (Again in the menu settings) to not load the bookmark, it won't. Or, you can choose for Rockbox to ask for confirmation about the bookmark (In the menu settings) and you get the choice to decide on the fly if you want to load the bookmark or not.

Yotto:
Are you trying to say that once you have bookmarked something, you can't start another song (or another playlist) in the folder the bookmark is in anymore? -- I'm pretty sure this is not true.

corel421:
Can you tell us which player you have and how you chose a song to play, which buttons you press?
