If you are using the bookmark menu in the LMS web interface and you do not refresh the page in your browser then this is true. It is a side effect of the reordering of the menu. The last played album is sorted at the top of the list. To keep the menu as consistent as possible i do the reordering only if no player is playing a bookmarked track. But if you are using the web interface and you do not refresh the page, the list you see in your browser will have the wrong order. I am pretty sure the same could be said about any menu item in the web interface. If the item list changes for whatever reason (Rescan etc.) and you do not refresh the page then clicking on an entry will do something different. Please note that you don't need the bookmark menu for that - if the player still has it's playlist then you can just press "Play" - the player will jump to the bookmarked position. I use this all the time, with iPeng on an old iPad as a bathroom player: This player has a 400 Tracks long Playlist, each track is an episode of a swiss radio show. I just use the pause and play buttons. The mechanism i use is quite simple: The menu is just a list of the bookmarked albums - Clicking on an entry simply starts the playback of the album.It makes no difference if you start the album from the bookmarks menu or from "My music". The plugin itself constantly monitors all active players. If a player starts the playback of a bookmarked song it looks through the playlist of the player and moves the playback to the track of the bookmark (if it is in the current playlist - otherwise it does nothing). After the player starts playing the bookmarked track it moves the play position to the bookmarked position in the track. As a side note: Powering a Radio or Boom on and off isn't really useful. AFAIK the power button of the web interface does not much more then to turn the display on and off. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sternenjaeger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=57562 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102859 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
