Stop After Current Track

A minor flaw in Media Center is the missing "Stop After Current Track" command.

I've also wanted to be able to stop after approximately N minutes, without having to remove superfluous tracks from Playing Now.

Just remove things after the current song.

( Ctrl+2, Down, Shift+End, Delete )

then the playlist is lost, i'm guessing if one was working on a playlist of tracks, keeping the playlist  would be helpful.

Just flick the stop at current play switch. when track ends, do whatever editing etc needs to be done. Press play to resume.

"Stop after current track" would be a most welcome command for me. I currently have to use Winamp as my player and MC10 as mydatabase because of three things lacking in MC.

1. "Stop after current track" very useful as a DJ for pausing for announcements. In Winamp I can right click on the stop button and select "stop after current". Winamp will then play the rest of the song without any outfade or crossfade, stop, and load the next song ready to just press play again to resume. The command is then reset until it is spefically selected again. You can also set up winamp in the options to always play one track, stop and load the next one ready to play. This is useful for DJing Karaoke, where you need to stop after each song to get the next performer up.

2. MC cannot xfade videos - Winamp can. You can even mix audio and videos in a playlist and the xfading is flawless.

MC has no support for CDG karaoke files, Winamp does

I would love to see these funcyions incorporated into MC so I could ditch Winamp altogether.
