Clear tracks from queue after playing them

Great as an option

If ever do I would want it to be an option in settings. I do not want songs deleting from the queue. A lot of times I add songs to the queue randomly through the night based on what people ask to play. At the end of the night I save the playlist to be able to bring back up and remember songs played.

DEFINITELY. Please add this as an option (as long as you can turn it off, of course!

I admit I hadn't thought of using "Replace Queue" as an option but I'd still like this added.

You don't really know if you want this option at all as you haven't tried the obvious solution. If you really want the option, so you can switch it off, how often would you actually use it and why?

Another example of a request which would probably only serve to add 'more' options onto an interface that doesn't need any more.

You add stuff to the queue and then it plays. When its finished, you can already:-

Restart the existing queue at any point
Add new content and carry on from there
You can CLEAR the queue and start afresh
You can add new content and REPLACE the queue in one go.

Doesn't this give you enough options, including exactly what you're after?

Yes. It wold be very useful

With all the available options mentioned in the post prior to yours, can you please explain why 'It would be very useful'

The advantage is that it clears the played tracks whilst still playing. If you use the "Replace Queue" command then what is currently playing stops at that point and anything else left on the playlist gets dumped. If you keep adding tracks to the queue so that the music never stops then you can't use the Replace command without upsetting the listening. I can understand why this feature would be useful to some.

Having said all that, I don't think I would ever use it and certainly wouldn't want it imposed, it would need to be a selectable feature.

I agree with most of the recent comments. I have never felt any need for this feature, doubt I would ever use it, and if it is added it must be a switchable option (and preferably not the default). The current queue functionality works fine in my opinion.

The feature serves as a way of keeping up with the queue. As mentioned above, you can just keep adding tracks to the list, and it is easier to keep track of what you have heard. At the same time the queue list becomes easier to manage as the tracks you have listened to disappear from the list.
