  1. Thank you, Andre, for your detailed answer. Of course, the behavior of a "normal" user is pure speculation, however, I write not to be the only one who has problems with the program logic here. My main concern is intuitive operation - and I just find it irrational that Shuffle in the view of a single playlist also forces to continue playing and shuffling to a random next list. From my feeling it should not be like that, but the shuffled list should just end. If someone does NOT want that, he can change that in the setting of the current title. As it is now, just YOUR normal behavior is made the default - and as I said, I just doubt that this is the same for most users....
  2. I know this topic has been discussed a few times, but I would like to reiterate a few points here. First of all, the point of creating a playlist is that when I play it, I want to listen exclusively to the tracks it contains and nothing else (selecting a genre/album/artist is the same, of course). That is, I expect the following behavior: 1. in the view of the selected playlist I can start it - either in sorted order or in shuffle mode. 2. in shuffle mode the playback doesn't start with the first track, but with a random track from the playlist 3. when all tracks are played, playback should stop - and not jump to another list 4. when in shuffle mode, skipping the last track will cause playback to stop - and not continue with another list 5. if I start shuffle mode again in the list view, a new random order will be created I believe this behavior is what most of all PA users want. Unfortunately this is very difficult to implement in PA, because the two upper buttons in the view of a single playlist (Shuffle/Play) do NOT create the desired mentioned behavior, but what only makes sense in the overall view of ALL playlists: There it is ok if Play starts the first playlist and then jumps to the next, and there it is also ok if Shuffle means that afterwards any other playlist is played - but not in the view of a SINGLE playlist. There it should generate the behavior as in 1. I know that the user can still influence the behavior of the playback in the view of the currently played track with the corresponding buttons - but who wants to (have to) do that? As I said, when I start a playlist, I just want it to play the way I want it to and that's it. I think the GUI should first and foremost accommodate the average user's behavior. 95% of the users use 5% of the features and only 5% of the users use 95% of the features. If there are too many knobs to change things on, and then they are in the wrong places, then the whole thing becomes unintuitive, irrational and quite annoying. Right?
  3. Yes, thanks for your explanations. Found a way to restore the damaged m3u8-files: Opening and importing them in Musicolet had the effect, that M. finds ALL of the listed tracks in the library (not only the ones with a correct path). Then I was able to export the imported M. playlist to a .m3u file - and when i copy this file into the folder where PA usually finds all those .m3u8 files then it can play again ALL tracks... ;)
  4. Yes, they were exported from PA. So I guess something in PA broke them some time ago cause lot of entries lacking the path information Some lines: #EXT-X-RATING:0 20. Solar Fire .mp3 #EXT-X-RATING:0 01 - Baby Batter.mp3 #EXT-X-RATING:0 05. Never Said (Remastered).mp3 #EXT-X-RATING:0 /storage/B8A6-1518/Music/Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 - Righteous Life (Official Visualizer).m4a #EXT-X-RATING:0 /storage/B8A6-1518/Music/OnePlus/09. New Town.mp3 #EXT-X-RATING:0 Anything I can do to fix this?
  5. Looked at the m3u8 file: A lot of entries have no path. Maybe that is the explanation. Surprised though cause other players (Musicolet) were able to open and play all files in the playlist, even if there are only filenames without path listed.
  6. Tried EVERY tip in this thread. Nothing works. Most titles in playlists were skipped as "failed to play". Other players handle them properly so they are not damaged. VERY FRUSTRATING... Besides: I'm on Android 10, there had been no updates and until some weeks ago everything worked fine...
  7. waiting for years for PAs sleep timer to fade-out. cannot be that difficult to implement that feature...
