Sure it depends how you look at it but in my mind playback and playlist really are the same thing. > > I also agree that it would be better to evolve the menus instead of > redoing everything the same time. > > The mentioned inline settings are a nice idea.

I cant get to the tracker right now but I'm assuming 5833 is the really old version which was done before the big settings rework? I remember implementing inline settings for the new setting system ages ago and think its on the tracker or forums also, have to dig it up... either way it sholdnt be too dificult to get working again.
