Now that there is a stop control, it would be great if that could be selectively applied to specific songs in the Now Playing list.
So, I put a bunch of songs into the playlist. What I want to do now is play them two at a time, back to back. That would work nicely if I could right click on the second song in the now playing list and select a "stop after this track" option. It would also work well for playing together the tracks from one side of an original LP.

For the information of readers, Version 2024.3005 has a control for playing one track at a time as described by Peke above.

Hi,
Thx for update, glad that we found best solution.

Thanks Peke, that is working as expected, apart from some sensitivity of MM about recognising double clicks. Manageable at my end.

Hi,
I would expect that you set Clear and play selected when tracks are not playing and Play next when they play. So once you add first track to now playing and start playing then every other double click on a track would just add it to now playing as next.

Or you can also set it to play next, but you then you need to clear now playing before you are setting up new one.

If you were to set your default action to clear lists and play selected only, that should do it.
Make sure your playback rules option is set to default or as above

Thanks for that, a bit of experimentation got me there - with [i]clear lists and play selected only[/i] the Now Playing list stays empty until I put a single file there (via [i]right click>Play Now[/i]), which then gets replaced by the next song that I select.

If I got this correctly the option you seek is Play menu -> Stop after (every file) and MM will stop on end of each played track till you disable or restart MM.

Yes, that's what I'd like because then I could populate Now Playing with everthing I want and then just step through it using the play control in the bottom panel. However, that could complicate things and adding one at a time to Now Playing works well enough.

Hi,
I know that the default action of MM5 is to play the songs in the Now Playing list one at a time, and I do use Auto DJ to keep that list going for me on most occasions.
For other occasions, I want to know if it is possible to configure MM5 to play just one song at a time, even though multiple songs are queued in Now Playing? If so I would direct a particular playlist to Now Playing and then have MM5 wait until I clicked on Play for each successive track.
If not, what combination of controls would let me put one song at at time into Now Playing?
Cheers

As for adding one track at time in Now playing I use Play Next default action if MM is playing so that while I am listening music I can easily add tracks from library with simple double click. You just need to make best combination of Default play now action Playback rules and Stop after.

If you were to set your default action to clear lists and play selected only, that should do it.
