ZvezdanD, thanks a lot! Works perfectly.

Nukm, why ugly?! Cute hack
But it better be a core feature, though... Simple for developers, useful for users - I just can't see any reason why it shouldn't

Yes. I think that's clearly a feature that have is place in Mediamonkey.

Hi Z:

I stopped using this script before because I could not select the location of where I wanted the list, the OCD is me has to have everything organized in subfolders. Would you consider the possibility of giving the user the option where to put the queue list rather than having it in the main branch of the playlists? I would really like to come back to using this since the stations script is no longer working like it did in MM3.


Also, when a track from the list starts playing, it will play for a second or two then it will be removed from the list and the next track starts playing. Shouldn't it let the track play in it's entirety??

I could add such option in the future. Although, I really think that such playlist should be on the first level inside of the Playlists branch, i.e. relatively accessible, instead of putting it deep inside of some sub-branch.

Yes, it should. Could you reproduce that bug always? Do you have enabled Auto-DJ or some add-on with the similar function? Do you have any add-on that have something with the playback?

I wouldn't bury it too deep, I just have my playlists segmented by file type and I would want this to go to 'Music' section.

Yes it happens everytime and no I do not have Autodj enabled or any scripts that should be affecting playback but let me look around and see.

I do not have any scripts that would affect it but I think it was my playback now settings that were messing it up, I changed it from play selected tracks only to clear list & play selected tracks and it is working now.

I don't understand how the 'Play Now' settings could cause such behavior, but I am glad that you found a solution.

Anyway, I think this is a bug of this add-on and it would be nice if you describe how exactly I could reproduce the problem. I tried with the 'Play Now' set to play selected tracks only and it worked fine.

oh you are funny? I have no idea how to reproduce, I tried it but it isn't working. I think that when I converted over to mm4 some of my settings in mm were not saved properly. So until I actually changed them from what they were and re-saved them in mm4 they were not working properly. Unfortunately I do not know which ones are affected until I actually try to use them. I guess that is what I get from copying over data from mm3.

I do not think it is a bug in the script but more either a problem in my ini settings or lingering bugs from previous mm4 builds. My setup is so complex that I usually encounter problems that others do not.

There is the new update, v1.2 - 2012-02-06:
* Added: possibility to specify the Queue playlist in the .ini file (please read the Usage section);
* Added: possibility to specify the hot-keys in the .ini file.

Is it normal for this script to force MM to play the playlist songs?

Eg. When a song finishes playing MM jumps to a song on my main playlist and a second after your script forces MM to jump to the queve playlists and so goes on for all the songs.

Cheers!

I don't understand what you want to say. What is it the main playlist, is tthat the Now Playing list? Could you describe more specifically how I can reproduce that problem?

Hello,

Many thanks, ZvezdanD. This extension works almost perfectly! The only thing I notice is that there is that before a cued song plays, I hear a second or so of another song from the Now Playing list which kind of interrupts what i'd like to be seamless playback.. This is a minor quibble but just wondering if this 'bug' is unique to my setup?

Thanks again!

Sorry I should have read the thread more carefully; Looks like i'm describing what Jeriel is experiencing?

That problem is already reported in this thread and it is hard to resolve because of MM lack in its programing interface. I already reported that to MM developers, but they don't care about it:

Thanks for the response. No bother, as I say a minor fault. Hopefully the developers will address this in the near future.

Thanks again!
