I like this feature, BUT here are a few options that would make it better (I don't know if it is possible in a skin):

1) Password protected? If people are selecting songs they want to hear, it is not nice to have someone come along and choose a playlist that starts - over riding the already selected songs. It would be better for a "manager" to select the playlist and enter a password.

Also, maybe the playlist can be added to the end of the currently playing list - so it does not over ride the currently playing songs.

2) In the beginning of an evening when people are not around selecting songs, it would be nice to have a playlist running and then when someone selects a song from the database, the songs is played as the next song in the playlist (kind of like itunes "play next").

3) Much like #2, it would be nice to default back to a playlist after all selections have been played and there are no more "user" selections to play.

Like I said, I don't know if these are possible in a skin, but thought I'd ask.

Thank you very much for this - it is a great skin.

OK, fooling around a bit yesterday (and still today). I managed to move the playlist selection section in the same code as the volume control.

Why, you ask? When in Kiosk mode, you have the option of not allowing/not showing the volume control. Now, the playlist selection is also affected by this.

I am working on other changes as well. Hopefully I will finish today, but still trying to get my head around the code.

C U,

OK, I finally registered.

I found a minor error.

If you are in Album Mode, or Cover Mode, the playlist display shows all songs loaded to the end. (in this case to track 18).

But, when switched to Playlist Mode, the display only shows the first 5 tracks. As you can see by the attachment there are still 18 tracks in the playlist.

Can you point me to the code to fix this?

Thank you,
Richard
