Feature Request: Modify "Remove files from Playing Now after they are played"

<< < (2/3) > >>

Soundwave:
The reason I asked, was because I'm not settled on the way I use JRiver, so I thought maybe you do something a way that would be novel/interesting/effective in some fashion.

Oh and yeah, whenever I mentioned "remove files after played" I was referencing the particular modification you requested, sorry for the confusion.

Matt:
If we added this option, what would happen on track change if you started on track ten?  Would it just trim all of them on track change until you were at five?  The current remove logic only removes the just played file so it would be a departure from that.  Thanks.

Matt, that is a darn good question I had not thought of.  And we don't want to break the functionality for existing users.

So maybe, and let's use 5 (could be 3 or 5 or configurable) as the prev tracks to retain in PlayingNow... so maybe unless there are exactly 5 tracks above the currently ending track that MC removes nothing when the track ends.

(I would personally like it better if even the current code would not remove any played track unless it was the top file)

Matt:
Coming to a future v28:
NEW: The option to remove played files from Playing Now can remove files as they are played or leave the last five files.

Thanks for the help.
