4.4. Working with Playlists
4.4.1. Playlist terminology
Some common terms that are used in Rockbox when referring to playlists:
Directory.
A playlist! One of the keys to getting the most out of Rockbox is under-
standing that Rockbox
always
considers the song that it is playing to be part of a
playlist, and in some situations, Rockbox will create a playlist automatically. For
example, if you are playing the contents of a directory, Rockbox will automatically
create a playlist containing all songs in it. This means that just about anything
that is described in this chapter with respect to playlists also applies to directories.
Dynamic playlist.
A dynamic playlist is a playlist that is created “On the fly.” Any
time you insert or queue tracks using the
Playlist submenu
(see section
(page
)), you are creating (or adding to) a dynamic playlist.
Insert.
In Rockbox, to
Insert
an item into a playlist means putting an item into a
playlist and leaving it there, even after it is played. As you will see later in this
chapter, Rockbox can
Insert
into a playlist in several places.
Queue.
In Rockbox, to
Queue
a song means to put the song into a playlist and then
to remove the song from the playlist once it has been played. The only difference
between
Insert
and
Queue
is that the
Queue
option removes the song from the
playlist once it has been played, and the
Insert
option does not.
4.4.2. Creating playlists
Rockbox can create playlists in four different ways.
