Change the next autoplay video #1826

Open Rabcor opened 3 years ago

Rabcor commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a usage problem (not a bug)? Please describe. Sometimes I don't want to watch/listen to the next video in queue for autoplay. It'd be nice to be able to change the next up video to a different video when that happens.

Describe the solution you'd like to see implemented The most user friendly would be the ability to drag & drop a video from the 'up next' list to the top to set it as the next video for autoplay

Describe alternatives you've considered Another probably simpler possiblity is just a menu option, e.g. click for the options for one of the videos in the 'up next' list, and press an option that makes that video next in autoplay.

It might also be nice to be able to add a specific video as the next autoplay vid, something that's not on the 'up next' list. The best way to do it would probably to have some kind of submenu you could open to search for videos then click on whichever one you want to be played next.

This is probably going to be implemented when the playlist feature is implemented

Ah, the vaunted playlist feature, I've been waiting for that one too :)

I do not know if this is totally related to my suggestion or not but it would be nice to have an "Add to queue" option like YouTube to play several videos in a row.

It is related This is also going to be implemented when the playlist feature is ready

I really hate how current autoplay can loop two videos endlessly until you manually select other video. I'd like them to change automatically to something new. How about giving an opportunity to sort "Up next" videos in random order rather than relevance, so they'll be changed every time?

I have never had this issue. However, I don't use autoplay :smile:. A solution could be having the recently played videos logged in temporary storage so that it will refuse to autoplay those videos. However, I am not sure about this implementation. Thoughts?

This feature would be highly appreciated. Autoplay is not good enough. Using a queue it could be much easier to explore a content. Looking further would like to propose such a change in current functionality. We leave autoplay as it is now but add a feature for changing an order of videos in autoplay. For example if a user reordered three videos in Autoplay, no other videos would be autoplayed before these three become marked as watched.

If a media queue feature is good enough for NewPipe it's good enough for FreeTube.
