queue list resets when winamp gives error and shut down

[juniorx]

hi. my playlist is so long and i use queue list with checking the option "restore the queue list when winamp starts". but if winamp gives error and shutdown anytime, then my queue list resets. how can i prevent this. i can not save it or make a new playlist because i always change it, queue list is best. how can i prevent it erasing queue list?? thanks..

it's by design to remove the queue list once loaded & to save it out on a succesful close as when the feature was implemented often not doing it like that would cause issues on loading if the back-up queue list was corrupted.

i've logged the request and will likely implement an ini only option when the plug-in implementing the queue feature is next updated though i may have a think over things and possibly remove the removal action completely (not sure yet).

any updates to the plugin will be notifed here or here

this is now implemented in the my internal build (still a while away from a new release however) where it'll preserve the file unless the queue is emptied and there's a valid close and restart of Winamp carried out. i'm hoping that will suffice as i've now re-worked my playlist handling to deal with the issues that caused the behaviour (was done to deal with corrupt playlist files which i now deal with differently).
