Media Library question

lameplanet · 24th March 2009, 15:41

There's one thing about winamp that bugs me, and I was hoping there might be a solution.

When I'm browsing through the Local Library, playing songs, and then switch to another folder in the Media Library - a playlist say - and then back to the Local Library, it's forgotten where I was in the list and takes me back to the top.

I'd like it to remember where I was in the list so that if I flick between the Local Library and a playlist (which I do a lot if I'm building a playlist and can't remember what I've put in there) I don't have to scroll down to wherever I was each time I go back to the library.

Is there a setting for this?

thanks

Winamp -> Prefs (Ctrl+P) -> Media Library -> Local Media -> Options tab:

Remember search filters in media & album views

This will make the ML remember what is selected in the top panes of a 2 or 3 filter view,
but not in the bottom tracks pane.

So how do we get it to remember our position in the bottom (largest, more useful) pane? Some of us don't use the 2 or 3 filter view, and therefore don't use the top two panes. If I could move around in the Winamp app and have it always return to my view of my tracklist, that would be awesome.

Also, is there a way to add a column with a "Now Playing" graphic? (a la foobar2k)
