Playlist: Centre button or Right could Insert instead of Play?
pablored:
I know that user interface issues are highly personal, and closely linked to individual usage. Also I can only talk from my experience on the iPod. But I don't think I can be the only one who find it frustrating having to hold the centre button in the click wheel to access the playlist functions.
It is fine, until you have spent ages setting up a list of tracks for an afternoon only to wipe it with a slightly too short key press. My ideal scenario would be for the centre button to be insert (but that is just for me, I guess most prefer that as Play).. but there is duplication in the Right button also acting as Play. Could that be Insert?
I have played with the Party mode, but that isn't quite there. It would need Insert as one of the two buttons... and MOST importantly the ability to queue directories.
Does this make sense to anyone else?
--> I guess it does, by searching more I found this. But does anyone know if it works for the iPod? http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/2653

Turn on the "Warn When Erasing Dynamic Playlists" setting:
Main Menu --> Playlist Options --> Warn When Erasing Dynamic Playlists

I hear ya febs, and I know this has come up before... but I totally agree. In a perfect world, I would wish that the select button could be set to insert.
Febs:
Personally, I think that it makes much more sense for the "Select" button to select, and the "Right" button to insert, but I agree that functionality would be useful. I just wanted to point out that the capability currently exists to prevent the accidental erasing of a playlist by mistiming a button press.
Llorean:
I've actually spoken in favour of Select selecting and Right inserting in the past (right's MUCH easier to accidentally hit on say H100 series anyway, but also easy to hit multiple times quickly for inserting several files).
