I have tried using my smart phone, but found it too limiting. I can't imagine that a controller or remote would suit me for this.

Individual tracks when I know what I want to listen to. Albums, typically when I have acquired new CDs/downloads and want to listen to them. Automatically, mostly by rating, sometimes by date last listened. Can't remember ever creating lists by artist. erland wrote: > 3.

For tracks automatically selected by search, I still use MediaMonkey or Foobar2000 to do the search. I have not got past the learning curve of doing it via Squeeze plugins. erland wrote: > 4.

I don't have a tablet yet, but I am hoping that would work for me one day. erland wrote: > 6.

This helps to create a list that does not jump wildly between styles/moods. erland wrote: > Is there anything else than the above you feel is important to take into > consideration if anyone would like to improve the playlist management ?When I > have a list of "random" tracks, I would like the ability to insert a second or two of silence between tracks. Not really playlist related, but I would like to have the album art, artist/album/song info, and track progress shown on my big-screen TV between my speakers, so that I can sit back, relax and listen, without always peering at tiny phone or SB Touch screens to see the info. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Henry66's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38863 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94988 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
