nkigor Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Please add the ability to sort the playlists. Especially the list of favorite songs. To start, you can 1 option - artist / year / track. Sorting by name is not very good idea IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 You can manually sort playlists, but not auto-sort. I guess the fact that it is a list of individual files (rather than albums, artists, etc) could make sorting less flexible. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkigor Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Especially the list of favorite songs, which is something in the PA database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkigor Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 I can not export, save or restore this list. And I regularly lose, and there are 300 songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingdutchman Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 By "favourite songs" do you mean the rated tracks? You can of course create playlists from these.In Library, Top Rated, from the menu select Add to Playlist and simply chose Select All. Finally click Add(n) to create your playlist. Now, to make sure you do not lose this, Settings, Folders and Library, Export Poweramp Playlists. Pay attention to the information in the dialog box as it tells you where it will be saved. Finally, make sure this location is scanned by Poweramp. Settings, Folders and Library, Music Folders. Only tick the ones where your music and playlists are to be found.

nkigor Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 This is a dynamic list, is not it? Today I like some songs, tomorrow others. I ask you to make a bicycle, and you suggest a way to limp on foot. Well, let there be only one sort "by file name", but let it be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Playlists are not dynamic, they are editable though. As of now there is no option to change the playback order, other than manually or via another app like TheoKlink's New Playlist Manager. So for now if workarounds don't suit you, it is here in the Feature Requests topic. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing in the powetamp Database to do with favorite songs, ratings is the only indicator.

flyingdutchman Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 with the current Poweramp API it is not possible. Hopefully with the new version, the API will be updated to allow writing to the Poweramp database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a new user interface is under development, which needed to be built from scratch so no new test releases are possible until that is fully complete. Hopefully very soon now though.
