Stop after current

<< < (4/8) > >>

evilnick:
Simply playing a file from a new directory will clear the dynamic playlist and create another.

Is there a reason why you would want to clear the playlist *without* playing a new file?

Chronon:
Please consult the manual for the key map for your player.  Chapter 4 will tell you the functions of various keys (and key combinations).

I have wanted to be able to clear the playlist (or stop/pause after current) in the past.  (For example, you may wish to end the set of music currently playing without abruptly ending the current track or needing to pay close attention to when the track ends.)  A workaround for now is to choose "Play next" on a track of silence.

"Clear playlist" would have the same function as the recently proposed "Stop after current" so i don't think we need both of those :)

Chronon:
Merged.   :)

I don't agree with that -- why should someone wanting to stop playback after the currently playing track also want to clear the playlist the same time? I'm using stop after playback with media players every now and then, and I usually want to keep the playlist.

Clearing the playlist would of course also stop playback after the currently playing track, but it's still not the same :)
