>What should the PLAY button do, then? > I would have thought that most people would expect it to add to the end of the playlist. If a host hands out the remote for guests to choose music, I'd expect it to play in the order the songs are added (queue), not as a stack. AKA Jukebox mode.

I'd hope so. Stop should also be available (pause.hold). I never understood the resistance to having a stop button. When the player is stopped, play should restart playback. Why prevent it? The only change should be to prevent play from being used to replace the playlist content - i.e. do the equivalent of add when browsing the music library. Pressing play on the now playing screen should still work, IMO. It could be debated whether browsing to another song in the now playing screen and pressing play should play that song, or only allow play to restart playback from where it had last been stopped (make it equivalent to unpauseing). What about FWD/REW (next track/previous track skip), and track seeking - should they be disabled? _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
