Please add the ability to park a queue. Currently the only way to do it is to transfer the queue to another sonos player and pause, play something else, and then transfer it back. Such a hack for a professional system. The use case here is let's say you are playing a playlist but someone has a request for a different genre. Ideally you would park the playlist, play however many songs of different genre or a different playlist, and then unpack the playlist. Obviously it would be best if you could park and unpark different named playlists but even ability to do one would be a great leap for mankind. It could be implemented in the playlist itself via a third option to play, and shuffle. I.e: resume.. so each playlist remembers the last song in the queue played and has capability to resume from there.
Hi
Thanks for sharing, I can see the case for this, especially if you have a larger queue you don’t want to lose.
I’ll forward this to the relevant teams as a feature request for their consideration. If you have any further suggestions or feature requests, please feel free to post them here.
Right now you don’t even have the ability to save the queue as a playlist. While “Save” is worked back into queue management maybe another option could be added that stores a queue for later use. That space would have to be limited to one queue so as not to take up memory used for Sonos playlists. What you would name that command I don’t have a clue.
Even an option for a saved Playlist to resume playing at the last track played or from the beginning would be a help.
This does not apply to an improvised queue. Instead it applies to M3U playlists. Squeezebox ( LMS ) does something very cool. So you are playing one of your M3U playlists and you stop play on track 347. Next you decide to play something else which clears the queue and begins playing your next choice. A few days later you decide to play that first playlist you played a few days ago. When you do it will start at track 347.
