Set default Playlist Location

Post by RedPanda »

Can you add this feature please?
On the main ribbon where New/Open/Save is, when I open a playlist, the program never remembers where my playlist folder is and it's really bothersome to go through finding it each time after a restart or whatever. It would be great if in the general settings we can specify the folder of our default playlists, so when we Open/Save it will always go into the correct same folder.

Thanks!!

This is now added to the v3.0.12.2 - the last playlist location is automatically saved/restored.

Hi Bernd.. it actually doesn't seem to be working. It's still not saving the playlist location. It's gone back to the default tree view a few times even without closing the program.

Ok so when I click on the FOLDER icon, it opens the Windows box to find files. The tree view is just the view on the left hand side of the box that shows the different HD's and various areas in Windows etc. So when i close a playlist, and open a new one, or try to insert playlist into a current playlist, it keeps defaulting to Libraries\Documents in Windows 7. It's not going to the folder I store my various playlists. So I have to searching for them again over and over.

Hmm, that is a bit strange, since here it behaves differently - so I can not really reproduce your issue.

Here the last folder used when clicking on the "Open" (playlist) ribbon icon is saved and restored.
As well as the last folder used when clicking on the "Save" resp. "Save As" (playlist) ribbon icon is saved and restored.

Note, that both locations (for "Open" and "Save") are saved and restored independently.
And also not, that they are only saved once you effectively opened resp. saved a playlist.

Please explain the detailed steps to reproduce...

Ok, so yes, I'm doing what you describe, but as soon as I've closed out a playlist, and opened a new one (using NEW on the ribbon) in the main area of ONAIR, it loses it's place when I go to find (OPEN) my playlist folder. Not sure why. It HAS worked correct a few times but seems to mostly 'forget'. Odd isn't it?
