Doubleclicking an album opens it if it was closed or vice versa.
Creating albums is done by right selecting the parent album in
the tree and click the “New album” button
or “Album->New” in the right-click menu. In the new empty album, you can then
load files or URLs. Another option to import whole directory trees, is to
click “Album->New from directory”. It will pop up a directory selection dialog.
The directory can optionally be scanned recursively. The tracks are either in one
(flat) album, or in subalbums according to the directory structure.
Note that importing large directories takes some time.
Deleting albums is done by selecting them in the tree and
clicking the “remove” button
(or by choosing Album->Remove in the right click menu. Please note
the following:
Moving albums is done with Drag & Drop
Loading files or URLs into an open or closed album can be done by dragging it from a filemanager or webbrowser into the target album in the tree widget.
Some special albums are automatically created in addition to the regular albums (which are created by you):
It's the destination for tracks, which come from the comandline or from the remote.
Each regular album has a Favourites button
, which
lets you copy the selected tracks to the favourites. It's useful for
quickly making a selection of tracks from multiple different albums.
Each plugin, which handles devices like removable disc drives
or tuners
will create a plugin album. The available devices are
then autoscanned and added as subalbums. Device albums are a bit limited:
You can delete or reorder tracks, but you cannot move tracks from/to other
albums.
