Is options tag in playlist *1 file documented somewhere? I could experiment with emplode, but I don't have Windows handy, and would like to set some shuffle and repeate options from emptool.

Thanks!

options=xx

where xx is a hex number with the following bits set:

08 => Always randomise this playlist
10 => Auto-repeat this playlist
20 => "Ignore as child", i.e. don't play this playlist when playing its parent playlist.

To pick (say) 3 songs from a playlist when you play it, use the *1 tag

pickn=3

To pick (say) 25% of the playlist, use the tag

pickpercent=25

Is there a reason why the "Ignore as child" is not in emplode? That is a great feature for my "Favorites" and "Misc low quality songs" playlists that I donīt want to appear within the root playlist (in playing the root playlist that is).
Would really be nice to be able to access that option from within emplode (<playlist>/properties/playlist).

Oh-oh! If we didn't put it in emplode, that might be an indication that it doesn't actually work...

I'll check...
