Why only album shuffle play button?

[Barry4679]

I am using MMA UPnP facility to play music, browsing my MMW UPnP Server.

I search via album artist; select an artist, and the drill down into an album.

I see all the tracks, but want to play the whole album in track number sequence.

There is an album play button on the heading row, but it appears to gives shuffle play for the album. Shouldn't there also be an standard play button for the album.

How do you play an album in track number sequence? At present I need to long press one of the tracks, and then press the select all icon, and then press the play button.

That can't be correct ?

If you just click the first track it doesn't play the whole Album? That's the way it seems to work for me.

So it does.

Still not what I was hoping for though. That replaces the Now Playing queue, rather than just add to it. Means I have to wait for the currently playing album to complete, before queuing the next one, otherwise the currently playing one gets cut off abruptly.

The long press & select all method gives access to a an add to queue button.

It would be real good if there was such a button up on the album heading row (besides the play shuffled button).

Seems an obvious thing to want to do, ie. queue up another album after those already selected|playing.

Agreed.

This is a problem for playlists as well. I use a lot of autoplaylists in MediaMonkey Gold, some that have a specific order, and others that are auto-sorted to have songs I haven't heard in a while float to the top. It seems I either have to manually add every song to the playlist, or use the button that adds them in random order. (or replace the entire playlist based on other comments in this thread)

That said, being able to now use my painstakingly created playlists on my phone at all is wonderful.

Thanks!
