imho, the ml and playlist dont work together well. after using intellimix (which makes no sense to me), 30 tracks were in the playlist. after closing the playlist, i was playing around with the media library. i wanted to listen to some song, so i clicked on it. that song wasnt in the playlist, so it was automatically made the only song. now, it just repeats itself.

there should be a way to edit the current playlist throught the media library. my main playlist has all of my music, so when i see a ml of the whole schmeer, i think it should be in the playlist.

so, it would be cool to edit the playlist with drag and drop type features from the ml. (drag from all to the playlist section). and opening a file not in the playlist should add it, instead of replacing the whole thing.

Hmmm, drag and drop totally works for me. I dragged a selection of songs out of the ML (I really like rectangular selection, available in the ML but not the playlist, alas) onto the playlist and it adds them fine. If I drag an album out of the artist treeview that also adds to the playlist fine.

Also, go to preferences, Player:Media Library, and then see the options there.
