Additional Media Library features

[Moguta]

Mass export playlists
Choose directory in which to export all selected ML playlists. Saved filename = playlist name. Very useful for backing up all your playlists; something essential in the absence of an Undo button.

Highlight current track
If the currently playing track is present in the current ML view or playlist, highlight it (like in the playlist editor).

Monitor directories for new activity
Rather than a "rescan every xxx", wouldn't it be easier if WinAmp just monitored every new addition/modification in each ML directory? User-enabled option, perhaps?

Special ML View linked to the Playlist Editor
Always shows files currently in the Playlist Editor... tracks removed & added in the PE are changed in this view, and tracks removed & added in this view are added to the Playlist Editor. (I'm sure this is a popular request, since it's news to alot of WA5 users that importing the current playlist doesn't work like this.)

Integrate 'J' functions into the ML
Sure, there is a search function, but when you find & play a file with the search function, the current playlist will only contain the songs which fulfilled that search criteria. With the Jump commands you can play that one song you're looking for & still keep the full view in the playlist.

Automatically update views upon changes to the library (add/remove/song info modification)
Self-explanatory

Open new ML window
Either this, or the ability to have multiple playlists/views open in the Media Library.

non-ML:

Update ID3 tags in background
When rewriting an entire file due to ID3v2 tags exceeding their padding, please close the ID3 editing dialog & perform this in the background. (Obviously a file currently being played will still not be able to be played while rewriting occurs.) It is so SLOW editing a lot of ID3 tags that cannot be done with blanket commands, when you have to wait for each file to rewrite itself before WinAmp will respond to your commands.


Despite numerous suggestions for improvement, I must go out of my way to thank the whole WinAmp/Nullsoft team for the great media player that they have made so far (and will hopefully continue)!
