\item[Directory.] Rockbox always considers the song that is playing to be part of
|
||||
a playlist, and will create a playlist automatically when you are playing the
|
||||
contents of a directory. Meaning, just about anything that is described in this
|
||||
chapter with respect to playlists also applies to directories.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[Dynamic playlist.] A dynamic playlist is a playlist created
|
||||
``on the fly.'' Any time you use the \setting{Playing Next...} menu
|
||||
(see \reference{ref:playingnext_submenu}), or play something
|
||||
from the database, you are creating or adding to a dynamic playlist.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[Play / Add.] \setting{Play} or \setting{Add} a track to
|
||||
put it into the current (dynamic) playlist.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[Queue.] \setting{Queued} tracks are also put into the dynamic playlist,
|
||||
but removed again as soon as they've been played.
|
||||
Note: Options for queuing tracks are hidden by default (see \reference{ref:queuing} for more details).
