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.
Sagi,

Merry X-mas,
Ben
