Editing the playlist
How to use the powerful playlist editor?
Using the mouse

You may change the order of entries by dragging them from one place to another. To add an item to the end of a playlist, hold down Control key and drop the item on the playlist item.

Clicking the right mouse button on the playlist window or on a playlist entry will bring up a context menu containing a list of actions. Below is a description of each possible action.

Play or double click (on any entry)

Starts playback from the current selection. Holding down Control will cause a crossfade to the selected entry.

Play Next or Alt + double click (on any entry)

Marks the current selection to be the next track to be played.

Open File(s)/Directory/URL

Opening a file (track, playlist or directory) will clear the main playlist, insert the selected file(s) into it and start playing from the first entry in the main playlist.

Add File(s)/Directory/URL

Adding a file (track, playlist or directory) will cause the selected file(s) to be appended to the main playlist without affecting the player status. On a playlist entry the file(s) will be appended to the selected playlist.

Add Random Entry

Adds a new random entry to the main playlist and opens the Random entry properties dialog for it. See Apollo Advanced Playlist for details on random entries.

Add New Playlist

Adds a new empty playlist into the main playlist.

Save Main Playlist As

Saves the main playlist into a file. If the main playlist consists of only one playlist this action will save its contents.

Flatten Main Playlist

Recursively removes all playlists from the playlist and inserts their contents to their respective positions. After this operation the main playlist will contain all the tracks and random entries in unaltered order but without the tree-like playlist structure.

Sort Main Playlist

Sorts the entries of the main playlist by the property or ID3 frame you selected.

Find

Lets you search for a certain entry by entering part of its title. The search begins from the current position.

Find Next

Repeats the previous find operation.

Insert File(s)/Directory/URL/Random Entry/New Playlist (on any entry)

Inserting is just like adding, but instead of appending the entries are inserted to the currently selected position.

Incorporate Item(s) Into New Playlist (on any entry)

Creates a new playlist to the selected position and move all selected entries into it.

Delete (on any entry)

Removes the selected items from the main playlist. Removing a playlist causes all its entries to be removed recursively.

Delete File (on track and playlist entries)

Removes the selected items from the main playlist and physically deletes the corresponding files. Removing a playlist causes all its entries to be removed recursively from the playlist but the individual files are not deleted unless they are explicitly selected.

Properties (on a track)

Save (on a playlist)

Saves the selected playlist.

Save As (on a playlist)

Saves and renames the selected playlist.

Drop Playlist (on a playlist)
