Shuffle Mode Track Grouping

Postby NOYB » 20 Apr 2021 20:58

Need ability to have a play list in a play list. So play list A will play play list B when it comes to it in the play list.
This is NOT simply having the tracks of play list B in play list A.
The purpose is to, in shuffle mode, play a set of tracks consecutively.

A different approach would be a feature allowing several tracks to be grouped together.
So tracks 5,6,7 of album X should always be played consecutively when in shuffle mode. Regardless of whether being played via the album or a play list.

Thanks

I second this motion! This is a feature I want too! I can envision checkboxes next to each track that would signify that they are grouped together for consecutive playback, and when it finishes playing the last track in the group, it resumes shuffle. Brilliant idea! I hope the dev's consider this one!

This is somewhat unnecessary if you know how to merge and re-encode files. Like... just take tracks 5,6,7 of album X, and make them into a single MP3 and put that in your playlist :\
