Title: Pause between Playlists
Post by: James4 on August 19, 2021, 19:46:59
Hi.  :)

I listen to audiobooks (long files) and I'd like to pause the playlist/audio and jump to another playlist to listen to music, then go back to the paused playlist in the exact same spot.
Bookmarks are cumbersome, instead one can 'pause between playlists', it's much more convenient for long audio files like audiobooks or records.
I sometimes play other files by mistake (double click) and lose the audiobook position.

Thank you.

Bump.

Will anyone else find it useful to maintain playback position between playlists?
I really don't like opening another window with the music library and bookmarks, I also forget to bookmark the position of audiobooks when I want to listen to some music.
Pausing position between playlists will be very convenient.

2023 bump.

I miss this feature very much, I need to use goddamn foobar2000 to listen to audiobooks so I can pause and not lose the position and listen to music in AIMP.
Incorporating Bookmarks into Music Library was a mistake, I hate using Bookmarks even more now.

I don't see any problems.
In the new version, it is enough to open another playlist and start the track, then right-click on the track's progress. There is a quick selection of a position and its appointment.

Just enable "Restore playback position for each playlist" in Preferences > Player > Automatic
When you want to continue playing a book - rigth click on playlist tab > Play

Wow! This is exactly what I wanted, thank you very much!
I would never have guessed to right_click->Play on the playlist even after enabling the 'restore' option.
Quite amazing that no one else suggested this in 1.5 years, thank you again.
