suggestions for DCM behavieour

When/while in DCM
  • I would appreciate if the meta window on the right side would display the info from the file under actual selection. That way I could keep listening while preview the meta data of other files. I don't see any advantage in staying there at the actual playing file (while in DCM!)...? If there is for someone, than maybe make this optional?
  • if switching to another directory, I would appreciate if the player would have an option to keep playing in its current directory (next track relative to actual playing) and don't switch to first file in the DIR that's actually shown in file list when actual playing file reaches it's end. Maybe this one is very consumer/playback orientated, but for me it makes a lot more sense. Would make stumbling around in library a lot more comfortable. 8-)

Good one! Noted for a future release.

This unfortunately is a very complicated one as it requires an internal playlist that's independent from the browsing playlist that is kept in the background. It might happen once playlists are integrated, but I can't promise this feature anytime soon.

Ok that playlist thing is understandable. Well waiting then for the playlist feature.

If they are build in, then this could be a good one to have a playback option like "DCM/SCM"
-> "KPL/FPL" -> "keep playback in list/follow playback to actual list" (like it's now)...
