| Summary | 0019720: Adding NOW PLAYING to DLNA playlists can solve issues with devices that can't be cast to. | ||||
| Description | We should add NOW PLAYING to DLNA playlists. Some devices (Denon/Onkyo AVR are known to have issues due the lack of HEOS API support) do not support casting or be DLNA renderer and only way to play Selected tracks from Now Playing is to create special static playlist and copy tracks to it or use device interface to recreate Now playing playlist. Most of such devices are capable to Browse and play from DLNA Server, so if we add "Now Playing" in main list when MM5 server is accessed over DLNA (just list it as last one) it will allow user to easily play tracks and easily continue playback on DLNA device what he/she listened on MM. Example: 1. in study room Play music on MM5 -> populate now playing with music you want to listen for the rest of the evening 2. stop playback and go to living room power on Denon AVR 3. Play music from LAN 4. Select MM5 server -> Now Playing -> Play -> Enjoy This approach allow users to quickly prepare list of tracks for its current listening mood, without going thru process of creating playlist with tracks and then Search thru them on DLNA Device, but quickly switch from device to device. | ||||
