Selecting Playlist columns?

Postby athans » 05 Mar 2009 00:04

Hello, I cannot see how to select Playlist columns, I can only see Name/Author/Duration. I'd like to see track-number.
Right-clicking doesnt seem to be doing anything (as it does on Windows XP).

I am using 0.9.8 on Leopard.

Am I missing the obvious?

Thanks

I would like a resolution for this as well. I have not been able to find anything about this anywhere. I'm currently using 1.01, and very disappointed that things that are simple in Windows are seemingly impossible in MacOS with this app!

As a side note, I've noticed the playlist is just overall generally useless, since the thing sorts by track NAME. I wouldn't even need to see a track number column if the playlist was properly sorted.

Hello, does anyone know how I can change the columns in VLC for Mac?
In the Windows version I can change (add/remove) columns by right clicking the columns, but in VLC for Mac it can't change columns.
I use VLC 1.0.5 for Mac on OSX 10.6.2.

Thanks.

That's unsolved for now and probably isn't going to be fixed any time soon due to a lack of active Mac OS X developers. Additionally, we chose to focus on the re-write currently called Lunettes which won't have this interface anyway.

To the far right of the column row headings you will see a | drag it over right click and click the heading you want.

Wow, this is an old thread. Lots of stuff happened since then.

Anyway, VLC 2.1, scheduled for release early next year, will include all the columns (and customization options) known from the Qt interface used on Windows and Linux.
