Title: Add entire album to on-the-fly playlist while in ID3 mode?
Post by: LMN8R on July 01, 2006, 01:16:05 AM
I know that you can select an entire folder (with a recursive option) in the file mode to on-the-fly add to your playlist, but is it possible to do so in the ID3 tag mode?  When I select an entire folder in ID3 mode it just gives me the "open with" option, and no playlist options.

I'd love to be able to use the ID3 tag database at the same time as queueing up a bunch of albums to play.  Thanks!

If you go into the folder normally, isn't there an all songs option inside of it?
It's been a little while since I've used that mode, but I seem to recall that being added.

Nope, when I'm in ID3 mode, I can either select the whole folder and get the option to "open with...." or go into that folder and just select one file at a time.  Of course, I could just go and add one file at a time but that would be a pain.

There is an <All Tracks> option, but it doesn't do what you want. It still can only be opened, not inserted.

Right, yeah I saw that all tracks selection, but I was just looking for a way to on-the-fly add them all to my playlist when something else is already playing.

It's not there yet, but it's planned to have the Insert / Queue options for TagCache as well.

Oh ok great, as long as it's planned on then that's what I wanted to know.  Thanks!  I'll lock it now.

I was just looking at the daily build changelogs and saw that this was implemented - awesome!
