GeilerHeinz Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Is it possible to add the option of storing the list position for lists such as the all genre songs list? At the moment this option is only available for playlists. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haddy Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I too tried to manually drag arrange the List order but found the feature isn't possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 @GeilerHeinz I guess it's possible (via List Options switch or may be via some global option). Thanks for the request! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeilerHeinz Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Maybe I really missed some global setting, but I can't find the according list memory section neither in the list options of All Songs nor of any All Genre Songs list. For Playlists it does exist. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 The feature currently only exists for Folders and Playlists. It is an individual setting, per folder/playlist, not a general setting. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeilerHeinz Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 If there isn't anything technical speaking against it I would welcome this additional option for all different kind of All Songs lists (All Album Artist Songs, All Genre Songs etc.).

Right. This feature would also be comfortable to have in the different All Songs lists. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 The regular Library Category lists (Folders, Albums, Artists, Years, Genres, etc) are not intended to be rearranged manually, they have configurable sorting features which reflect the category you are working with. If you want to move songs around and make your own lists manually, that's what Playlists are for. You can easily create a new Playlist containing everything in your entire music library with just a few taps, and then mix it up however you like: Library > All Songs > Select > All > Add to Playlist.

GeilerHeinz Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share Posted January 29, 2022 Please add the option to store the list position for lists such as the all genre songs list. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 @GeilerHeinz while it could be implemented, it means we'll have it everywhere. But management of those albums/genres/songs/etc. categories will be a bit more complicated due to some, for example, albums storing their positions, some are not. Added to TODO, thanks for the request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 @GeilerHeinz Don't forget that this option is per individual grouping - so it settable per each separate Playlist or individual Folder - it is not a global setting for all playlists or all folders. So the same logic would presumably apply to other categories. Thus you would need to enable it for each particular genre, or album, or artist, etc. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeilerHeinz Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 @maxmp Thanks for putting this on your todo list. The option to store the list position for every category (particular genre ,album artist etc.) separately would be okay. This way I would be able to start playback at the position in a shuffled all genre/album artist songs list where I left before. But playback of a single album within the same particular genre or album artist shouldn't be affected. Is this possible? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 At the moment there isn't much nesting in the feature. You can only set it for an individual playlist or an individual folder - and that doesn't trickle down to any subfolders, which you would need to set separately. So how it would work at a Genre or Artist level (where there are sub-groupings) I really don't know. I suspect it may be a lot more complex than it seems.
