Description

maybe i am misunderstanding how this should work (sorry), but i am seeing no response with:

> DISPLAY=:0.0 audtool playqueue-get-list-position 1
>

where i would expect to see the index for the next track that will be played (i have shuffle selected, so cannot simply get the next song in the playlist).

if i have misunderstood how this works, is there any way to get the next song to be played when shuffling?

i am using audacious 3.2.4-1.13 on opensuse 12.2 (sending music to jack, if it matters).

You've misunderstood how the "play queue" works. It is a list of tracks that you have explicitly told Audacious to play before continuing to the next track in the playlist (shuffled or not). You might think of it as a playlist within a playlist.

There is no way to see in advance what track will be played next on shuffle, since it isn't chosen until the moment it is played.

Ah, OK. Thanks and sorry for the nuisance.
