Bug #212
audtool playqueue-get-list-position does not return a value
0%
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.
