I uploaded version 1.2.1 of the plugin to the repo. This version
contains some bugfixes and a couple of new features:
1) BOOKMARKS FOR PLAYLISTS[/B]
BOOKMARKS ARE NOW ALSO APPLIED TO PLAYLISTS. THIS MEANS THAT IF YOU PLAY
A PLAYLIST, THE PLUGIN MONITORS THE CURRENTLY PLAYED TRACK AND WAITS FOR
A TRACK THAT HAS A GENRE MATCHING THE ONES DEFINED IN THE GENRE FILTER.
IT THEN ADDS A BOOKMARK FOR THE PLAYLIST AND NOT FOR THE ALBUM.
THESE \"PLAYLIST BOOKMARKS\" ARE ALWAYS NAMED WITH THE NAME OF THE
PLAYLIST. IN THE BOOKMARKS LIST I ALWAYS PREPEND THEM WITH THE WORD
\"PLAYLIST\" (TO MAKE THEM EASILY DISTINGUISHABLE FROM ALBUM
BOOKMARKS).
BOOKMARKS OF PLAYLISTS AND ALBUMS ARE COMPLETELY INDEPENDANT OF EACH
OTHER. IF YOU PLAY AN ALBUM IT'S BOOKMARK WILL BE UPDATED. IF YOU PLAY A
PLAYLIST, THE BOOKMARK OF THE PLAYLIST WILL BE UPDATED.
[B]2) \"FREEZE\" A BOOKMARK
I added a feature to "freeze" a bookmark with the "Now playing" context
menu. If you mark a bookmark as "frozen" it is no longer updated when
you play the album. It is also not deleted when the last track of an
album is played. Useful if you like to listen to audio books before
falling asleep.
You can both "freeze" und "unfreeze" a bookmark from the context menu.
3) SUBMENU TO MAINTAIN THE BOOKMARK
I added the option to show an additional menu after selecting a bookmark
(Setting: "Show additional menu before playing a bookmark"). If you
check this option clicking on a bookmark does no longer immediately
start playing the album. Instead you will get a menu with the following
options:
- Play
- Freeze/Unfreeze bookmark
- Start album from beginning
- Remove bookmark
-
4) BOOKMARKS FOR REMOTE TRACKS.
The plugin can now also set bookmarks for remote tracks. Please note
that these bookmarks are managed differently from the ones for local
albums.
They are not set automatically, so the genre filter does not apply to
them. If you want to bookmark a remote track, album or playlist then
click in the "Now Playing" context menu on "Add bookmark for current
Playlist"
The plugin then saves the current playlist. By default settings it will
load and start this playlist immediatly - unfortunately this will cause
a few seconds for rebuffering.
Reloading the playlist is necessary (otherwise i would not be able to
track the progress of the playlist).
If you prefer to set the bookmark immediatly before you want to stop
listening you can uncheck the box "Continue playing after adding a
bookmark" in the settings. The plugin will then empty the current
playlist after it saved the bookmark.
The bookmarks for remote tracks are always named like the album that is
currently played. The associated saved playlist is removed automatically
when the bookmark is removed.
Please note that these bookmarks are only tracked if you start the
playback from the bookmark menu.
And of course jumping to the correct position in the track requires the
stream to be seekable. On my system the plugin works for Spotify und the
- thanks to philippe_44 - recently revived youtube plugin, but not for
Qobuz.
These new feature required some substantial changes in the code. I have
tested these quite a lot, but i am sure there are still some bugs left.
Please let me know if you find issues.
