tomaskafka Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Hi, I'd really like to have the option to play library files in order by folder (alphabetical depth-first search :). Why: I most often use the folders, not library, as I have music organized in Artist/Album folders. However, I sometimes search for a specific track, and when I find it and play it, I'd love if the next track from the same album played next, and then the next album by folder. Basically it should behave like if search was just a way to jump to specific file, and to keep playing next files in a same order like if I played them by folders. Adding this option would accomplish that and would make me even happier about Poweramp (thanks for developing it! Got the Pro version and would have no problem paying again for v3 :).

andrewilley Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I assume you normally use Folders mode for playback (which does everything you ask for) but you are suggesting that playback of a Searched item should retain Folders mode, rather than switching playback into All Songs mode when you play the filtered list? Is that correct?. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomaskafka Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 That's right Andrew, thanks! Staying in folder mode would fix my use case equally well. Could this be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Sadly no. Search (and also triggering playing from an external file manager) starts playback in All Songs mode, I assume as that's a flat list in terms of being able to play filtered.
