So I might be reviving a dead thread here, but I read the whole damn thing and couldn't find anything addressing this...
If the now playing section has been populated with only part of an album using auto-dj/this script and then I start playing a new album from my library (i.e. the now playing section is repopulated with the album I double clicked in my library) once the auto-dj/this script starts adding songs into the now playing list it starts adding from where it left off adding songs to now playing (not where I actually left off playing songs).
So if I double click the last song of an album in the library pane and I have auto-dj set to always maintain 20 songs then it will populate the now playing list with, for instance, all songs from an album that has 12 tracks and then the first 8 tracks from the next album. So far so good. If I only listen to 3 songs, then tracks 9, 10 and 11 will be added to the now playing list. Again, this works as intended. But if I now double click the last song of some other album in the library pane auto-dj/this script will add 20 new tracks to now playing list starting with track 12 of the album that was added previously. I would prefer it to start at track 1 of some other new album since, at least in this scenario, I never made it to even the first track of the album that is now being added to now playing starting on track 12.
Best current workaround I have is to limit the auto-dj function to only add one track at a time, so at least I'm going back to the place I was previously listening to and only skipping one track.
