I'm certainly not surprised other people have been asking about this, but I am disappointed that we won't see it soon. It would be nice if the squeezebox could be a useful tool to create and save playlists, but I guess new users should just keep a copy of iTunes or winamp handy to do that. The idea that a playlist that took 30-60 minutes to compile can easily be wiped out with a stray button click or a new user with good intentions just doesn't seem like an intelligent design choice. And for what? It's not difficult to clear a playlist. Playlists take time to compile. Taking five seconds to clear them with the "clear playlist" function doesn't seem unreasonable Peter;270185 Wrote: > NWP wrote:[color=blue] > Again, what would - in your situation - be the method to switch to a > new track or new internet radio station immediately?

The play button would play your choice immediately without the often unintended "oh while I'm at it, I'm going to clear your entire playlist for you too" effect. Please take the time to read my posts if you are going to respond to them. kdf;270188 Wrote: > > The good new is, if you feel you need it to work differently, you are > completely able to make it happen.

Is there something different for the web interface? -- NWP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NWP's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43538 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
