Hi.

If you want 'enqeue' its already there, right click a track and 'play next'.

If your using 'shuffle' mode, then obviously this doesn't work, instead you should use 'auto-dj' to add random tracks to now playing which are then played sequentially and then the 'play next' will work as you expect.

In summary, don't use 'shuffle' if you want to control what plays next.

Dear MM board admins... please add "Enqueue feature" to the Official Wishlist! It is a long overdue feature... (and there are many other threads that echo this)..

Maybe a script Gurus can re look in my Script and Add few more new features as Script is 3 1/2 Years old.

Hope someone reads this and could give some info.

Thnx,

Sorry, this still isn't possible.

I know that this thread is quite old but I can't seem to find a solution yet.
Are there any news on this?

I looked through the developer documentation but there does not seem to be an easy way to simulate the Winamp behaviour with a script as you cannot modify which track is played next either.

I really love MM but this the only feature I really really miss from Winamp.

Hi judas,
sorry but i havent found the time yet.
I'm currently working on the next version of my TagManipulation plugin for Meedio. (pascal scripting for Meedio) So when it's done i can look into the
script peke wrote for us.

DocZoiberg, did you actually got around the duplicates problem?

i find it anoying as well...any thoughts?

by **yohann** » Tue Jun 28, 2005 11:15 am

okay, i reread the posts above, especially saivert's.
what i wanted was a 'play next' function that works with shuffle on.
because i find it kind of unnnerving to randomize my 'now playing' and be able to see what's going to be played... because then it would be random, yes, but not as unpredictable as real shuffle mode.

by **yohann** » Tue Jun 28, 2005 10:58 am

some people already brought this up. for example i have some tracks loaded in Now Playing, a specific playlist for instance and playback is on shuffle.
now i browse through my library and find a track that would match the currently playing song.
now i select the song in the library window, click on enqueue, and then, regardless of the position of the song inside 'now playing', after the current song ends, the enqueued song is played. after that shuffled play of the content of 'now playing' continues.

in short: i want a 'play next' that doesn't simply move a specific song under the currently playing one, (because with shuffle on, this has no effect), but rather plays it after that. this should be possible for multiple tracks, too.

Can you elaborate little bit more?
Where exactly you need "enqueue" Function?

by **Yohann** » Mon Jun 27, 2005 5:35 am

I think this is a good idea since i switched from winamp to MM for its superior organizing abilities and the overall better handling.
However, i really would like to see a feature like the 'enqueue'-function in MM. something like a meta-playlist...
i mean, for a program that calls itself 'The Ultimate Music Manager' this is almost essential in my opinion... for casual DJing at least...

He this is just a script. No one is forcing you to use it.
if you like your MM the way it is just dont use the script.
The MM team will no doubt check if new features are wanted by the majority or just by a bunch of people with extra needs. So if the feature will become an integrated part of MM it will be either optional or most of the users would like to have it. In this case perhapse you would have to adapt to the way it then works instead of telling people whats best for them. Dont you think that we would still all work with DOS if we just leave software the way it is? And i'm the last who would say that a feature has to be in MM or not. Just what i wrote 4 or 5 times in my feature ideas just make things optional so people can decide if they need the featore or not.
Of course the default settings should be working in a way MM remains intuitive and works for most users out of the box.
