[feature request] Queue search and organisation #198

Closed

Description

@novvux

Good work, great client, except for queue functionality.

When I want to play song, already added to queue I need to search manually, no search button exists, as i see. Also I cannot sort queue in any way, other than two buttons: no drag-n-drop, no filters, nothing.

Add please.

    Here are my 2c:

    • For reordering, I'm thinking of adding drag-to-reorder into the queue UI and the playlist editor. The up/down arrow buttons drive me nuts too but they were far easier to implement :)
    • Searching should be easy to implement except I need to find somewhere to put the search button. The top is really crowded now in when at smartphone size and I don't wanna add a second toolbar.
    • Queue sorting is an odd request. The queue is inherently ordered; sorting it by something else semantically implies actually modifying the play order. What's your use case exactly?

    You've got the idea. I got the idea how mpd's queue works and sorting it is not needed.

    My use case is that I have like 200 different folders (I download them by artists, not by tracks, even if I haven't listened them all) and I want to listen music from them all on shuffle, so I can discover new tracks.

    v0.99.3 probably already satisfies the 2 main requests in this issue (not the queue sorting one since I think you can just switch to random mode for that). For some reason I forgot to close this issue.
