Hit one song, play whole album - PantsOnFire - 2014-11-01

Hey guys, how do you configure, so that you tap play on one item (files mode) and it will play that song and add he subsequent tracks to the queue?

At the moments all I'm seeing is the one song play, and than that's it.

Had a quick look in the settings for the app but couldn't find anything.

Regards.

I have this same issue.

Anyone have a suggestion?


RE: Hit one song, play whole album - whitebelly - 2015-01-01

Settings/Music/Playback - Select "play next song automatically"


RE: Hit one song, play whole album - Breakerfall - 2015-01-06

Yes, I do have that set within Kodi but it doesn't work when I use the app.

Is there a setting within the app?

Do you use database or file view?
AFAIK the "play next" just works with databasemode.


RE: Hit one song, play whole album - Breakerfall - 2015-01-07

Are you referring to my file structure or is that an actual setting?

I don't have a DB so if you mean structure then it would have to be file view.

He refer to the Kodi music library -> http://kodi.wiki/view/Music_library

Solution: go to:
settings-> music settings-> playback

and tick 'queues songs on selection'.

That didn't solve it. The app still plays only one song, not the album.

Try it with music -> database -> album (or artist).
It will play all songs if you made the settings described some posts before.

I don't see this setting. I see System - Music, but nothing for Database.

Thanks

So your installation do not use the database function.
Without it you are not able to play more than one song.
Set a source and scrape the content (for more information read the wiki).


RE: Hit one song, play whole album - Breakerfall - 2015-01-30

I read the wiki but don't see much info explaining the difference between library and the database function. In Confluence I do see that "Library Mode" is unchecked (I actually can't check it even if I wanted to). Does that mean that I am in database mode?

Just to be clear, I can play an album in order with one click when I use my keyboard. I cannot do the same with the iPhone app.

Thanks.

As stated before, you need to scan your music collection into the Music Library.
For your convenience I re-link the wiki into a specific section http://kodi.wiki/view/Adding_music_to_the_library and please read carefully step 2.


RE: Hit one song, play whole album - Breakerfall - 2015-02-03

Got it working!

Thanks for pushing me thru that. I wasn't clear why I needed to scan my library when it seem to be working almost perfectly.

Much appreciated!
