The play icon is not always easy to spot when scrolling through a list.

A couple options to improve orientation:

A different play icon color Highlight the row Animate icon

I think a different play color icon (plus possibly making it larger) is the best option. I'm reluctant to do an animated icon because it increases baseline CPU use. Highlighting the row could work, but would it be confusing since row highlighting is also used to indicate hover/focus/selection? Thoughts?

Just start with the icon and see how it goes, I think it should suffice. Alternatively change the color of the font but make sure it plays nice when highlighted.
