8.7. Bookmarking
Bookmarks allow you to save your current position within a track so that you can return
to it at a later time. Bookmarks also store rate, pitch and speed information from the
Pitch Screen
(see section
(page
)). Bookmarks are saved on a per directory
basis or for individual (saved) playlists. You can store multiple bookmarks, even for the
same track. When there’s already a bookmark for a directory or playlist, new bookmarks
are added before existing ones.
Bookmarks are stored next to the directory or playlist they reference, in a file with the
same name as the directory or playlist and a “.bmark” extension. To load a bookmark,
select the bookmark file and then select the bookmark to load. There are other ways to
load a bookmarks mentioned below.
Note:
Bookmarking only works when tracks are launched from the file browser, and
b
does not work for tracks launched via the database. In addition, they do not work with
dynamic playlists.
