| Summary | 0002144: Basic Duplicate Prevention (Now Playing) | ||||
| Description | This is related to basic duplicate prevention (bug 0001966), and is particularly useful when MM is used in Party mode. In Tools|Options|Player|Now Playing, add the following just below the Auto-DJ box: ---Proximity Detection---------------------------------- | [x] Warn when tracks are duplicated within a period of: _2_ hrs | . . [ ] Skip playback of duplicate tracks -------------------------------------------------------- In this case, whenever the user or the auto-DJ edits the Now playing list, its contents are analysed for duplicates. Moreover, if 'Skip Playback...' is enabled, then a track that appear in duplicate on the playlist appears in red but is 'dulled' to indicate that it won't be played. Note: in the Now Playing node, 'Duplicates' would be determined based on 'Last Played' timestamps. | ||||
| Additional Information | This is also related to bug 0002036 (insufficient randomization for Auto-DJ). We just need to make sure that the implementation here does not conflict with that in the Auto-DJ (e.g. it could conceivably cause tracks to be added indefinitely). | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Fixed in build | |||||

|
Raising to 'immediate' since we need to either decide to fix it this week or push it from 2.5 since we want to finalize strings this week (or add the strings to the current build so that we can decide to add it in later on in the release cycle). |
|
|
I'd defer this past 2.5, it doesn't seem to be _that_ important. |
