Save a Playlist After Changes in Playing Now?

<< < (2/2)

WMarkT:
Makes perfect sense. But I still have one question. Is there any way to not auto-play when you hit a radio button? As I'm playing from one playlist, I will likely want to look at another playlist without starting a song just yet.

Thanks for your help, I'm just trying to fine tune things.

Your auto play question is really "how do I look at playlists while I'm playing music?"

The answer is just to go to the Playlists tree (in the left navigation area) and click on playlists there.  You might want to use Tabs to make this easier.  Open a new tab and use it to navigate around in playlists.  Keep your original tab open to Playing Now so you can always get back there easily.

To open a new tab, click just to the right of the existing tab.  It's up top just under the Playback information area.

Note that Radio Button playlists are stored in a slightly funny place:  Playlists > Car Radio .  They will have numbers and whatever names you have given them.  They can be edited directly there in the playlists tree just like any other playlist.

Okay, so I have noticed this in a "New in MC25" post:

7. NEW: Panel - Added support for saving playlists. When selecting 'Save Playlist' from the additional options menu, it will grab the list in Playing Now for the current zone and save it with the name the user provides.

This has promise for what I want to do, IF I can save Playing Now to an existing playlist name. There's only one minor issue: I cannot find that additional options menu. Can you point me to it?

JimH:
Did you try updating MC?

blgentry:
On the chance that you don't know what Panel is:

Panel is a web interface to MC.  You can get to it in a web browser, on the machine that runs MC via:

http://localhost:52199

Not sure if that interface will help you or not.  You can explore a bit and decide for yourself.

Good luck.

Brian.
