Playing a saved playlist

(1/3) > >>

pwabrahams:
I have no problem in playing a saved playlist via the Files menu -- it works as expected.  But going via the top-level Playlist item is a different story.  I go from there to View Catalog, which displays the saved playlists.  So far so good.  I select the one I want to play with Select -- and I get bounced back to View Catalog.   With Long Select I get a Context Menu whose first item is Playlist.  There's no item that says, in effect, "play this playlist".   If at this point I select Playlist, I get bounced back to the Catalog which again shows a list of my saved playlists.  I've already been there!!

So how can I play a stored playlist via the top-level Playlist item?  The manual says that the Playlist Catalog can be used like the File Browser, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Chronon:
What player and version of Rockbox is this?

pwabrahams:
I'm running Version 3.8.1 on the Sansa Clip+.
Post Merge: July 02, 2011, 05:22:15 PMI just updated to version 3.9 of the firmware.  It made no difference.

JdGordon:
the playlist catalog only works with playlists in the specified directory:... /Playlists is the default.

if you can do your own builds it owuld be great if you tested http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/11808 and helped get that finished as it vaslty improves olaylist handling

Chronon:
I just tried with a current build on my F40 and pressing Select/Right on a playlist listed in the playlist catalog results in returning to the Playlists menu but with the desired playlist loaded.
