Post Songbird 1.1.0, Now Playing List will probably change dramatically in a way that hasn't been possible before. This will be due to a bug fix that didn't make it into 1.0, as well as a patch that I wrote and got accepted, which will most likely appear in the next major release. What this means is that I'll be able to completely rewrite the add-on to avoid all those crashes and bugs, and also eliminate the need to have those confusing modes. I thought I'd share with you the new user interaction model I hope to implement and get your feedback
- Play a track from the main window
Starts playing the track as normal
The now playing list populates itself with the new playlist
The tracks are displayed in the order they are going to play in, not the order they appear in the playlist
The playing track will therefore appear at the top of the now playing list if shuffle is enabled
The now playing list is renamed back to 'Now Playing' if necessary
- Play a track from the now playing list
Starts playing the track as expected
This does not make the track appear at the top of the now playing list, as the previous action would, instead playback has "skipped ahead" to this track
- * Reorder the position of tracks within the main window;
* Add tracks to the main window;
* Remove tracks from the main window;
* Change search/sort/filter on the main window
The now playing list populates itself with the updated playlist
The tracks are displayed in the order they are going to play in, not the order they appear in the playlist
- Add tracks to the now playing list;
Remove tracks from the now playing list
The now playing list is renamed to 'Custom Playlist'
The now playing list becomes a new playlist that is now out of sync with the main window
Starred actions (*) have no effect on this playlist
If playback has already started, the custom playlist is what will continue to play, not the original playlist
- Reorder the position of tracks within the now playing list
This changes the track order that the playlist is going to play through, whether it is showing 'Now Playing' or 'Custom Playlist'
- Change sort on the now playing list
This is disabled and has no effect
As you can see, no where have I mentioned the work 'queue' or talked about having to switch modes. The changes that are going into Songbird 1.1.0 should hopefully enable these things to happen naturally like they should. It still makes a distinction between 'Now Playing' and 'Custom Playlist', but this happens automatically and merely indicates whether the now playing list is still in sync with the main window, or has been altered "on the fly".
You should also be aware that when I say "Add tracks to the now playing list" I haven't said how, so this could be via drag and drop, via pressing 'Q' on the keyboard, via a right-click menu with 'Queue Next' or 'Queue Last' etc. Also this should be possible from any playlist, not just the library.

Re: Future Directions
This sounds great, thanks for all your work! Your add-on is really essential and should be included in the first-install-package! :)
Right now, I'm really looking forward to version 1.1 - when will it be released?
Re: Future Directions
Sounds awesome, read my mind on most of those things.
Re: Future Directions
This sounds great! Cant wait for songbird 1.1 - come hendrix, for this add-on among loads of other updates!
Re: Future Directions
This is really needed. Its one of two things (the other being embedded M4A album art) that are making me hold back from going over to songbird from mediamonkey.
Keep up the good work.
Re: Future Directions
Is this going to make it into the songbird core? It seems like this should be something that's installed by default, keep up the good work.
Re: Future Directions
Sounds realy awesome
Keep up the good work!!
Re: Future Directions
Sounds great. I'm not sure whether you implied the following in your todo-list, but I would love to see a feature which automatically adds all tracks in the current search query (rather than adding the whole library to the Now Playing-list, as it is in your current version).
Re: Future Directions
Good work! Your post/article is an excellent example of why I keep comming back to read your excellent quality content that is forever updated. Thank you!

If you need to get an admission in a school, college or a university or call upon any help in any kind of job, so don’t get anxious. Get ideas about your creation by using a custom essay service. I don’t think that there is anything immoral in using writing services.

The business loans seem to be useful for people, which are willing to organize their own company. In fact, it is comfortable to receive a term loan.
