Maybe shuffle in the play queue could be handled separately, effectively changing its semantic to a 'bag' where songs are being removed randomly.
Also I really can't see the point why duplicated songs were not allowed in the first place. What use case this feature (or lack of) breaks ? I see the PlayQueue as a 'would be' playlist. If it comes that a session was interesting enough to be save as a playlist, then the user should be given the chance to save it for re-use. So I agree that the main problem is how this feature is advertised to the user. It feels more like a sandbox where everything is possible, than something with strong restrictions and some very particular (not to say limited) use cases. cheers, Christophe On 10/16/06, Dmitry Golubev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If we let shuffle affect the play queue, should it just follow the main > > shuffle/repeat settings? > > it may be configured separately, or there may be a config option added whether > global settings should affect the play queue. if no buttons (repeat and/or > shuffle) are set there and it is contolled separately, than it will work as it > is now. if some buttons are set in the play queue it will satisfy the other > camp hopefully. maybe this is a reasonable consensus for now? > > Dmitry > _______________________________________________ > rhythmbox-devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel > _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
