Maybe there's already a way to do this, but I haven't found it.  The use-case is:

I'm playing a playlist and want to add a couple of albums after the track that's currently playing. "Add as next to play" works for this, but if I then add a second album it plays prior to the one I added before.  Either I have to "Add as next to play" in reverse order or put them in and then move them by hand.

It would be nice to have one click for each addition to say "after this song, play album A, then play album B, then play album C, then continue with the playlist."

Thanks.

You can do this already. It's one of the many things that MC does far better than anything else!!

Right-click an Album, More Play Options --> Add (after current album).

[Mr Swordfish]

No, that adds it after the currently playing album, not after the last thing I added to the playing now queue.

I still wind up with the added material in reverse order from how they were added.

Maybe there's another way?  I haven't found it.

To clarify, if there is a playlist going, say tracks P1,P2,P3... and I use "Add after current album" to insert four albums A1, A2, A3, A4, I get the following queue:

P1
A4
A3
A2
A1
P2
P3...

I'd like to have them added in the order I add them, not the reverse order.  Yeah, I can go in and fix this by hand, but it would be a nice feature to have the option of getting it right the first time.

One approach is that you could build a playlist and then add the playlist. You can drag and drop inside a playlist to order tracks.

I'll try adding a way to "Add (after last add)" today. Thanks.

[Mr Swordfish]

This is working great, and I'm using it almost every day.

Thanks a bunch!!!
