Amarok 2.2.1.90 KDE 4.4 – Track Progressions

Recently I upgraded to Amarok 2.2.1.90 from 2.2.0 while testing out some KDE 4.4.

However, when I first started listening to the music I realized that my tracks were playing continuously and not randomly. So I went to the menu’s to change this setting (this is where I had previously changed it). But to my surprise there was nothing in any of the menu’s.

So what gave? This surprised me in a major way.

So I poked around a bit and it’s now been moved solely to the playlist module and seems to have been removed from the menu.

With that said this is a pre-release version, and the Track Progression feature may be re-added to the menu’s, but I haven’t added a feature request to ask for this.

With that said everything else with the every advancing Amarok has been quite pleasant.

Here’s a screenshot for those that have their doubts.

(Just the default theme, with slim toolbar and changed playlist groupings).

I’ll talk more about features / fixes in 2.2.2 shortly.

I’ll talk more about installing it on openSUSE 11.2 in one of the following blog postings.

    Hi Ben,

    I noticed for the same thing when I upgraded Amarok to 2.2.1.90,
    but after a while I found the random option.

    At the bottom right corner of Amarok you can find a new icon with a note symbol in it
    clicking on it reveals the Track Progression menu.

    Enjoy,
    Sagi.
