Tray icon: Play next episode from menu #344

Open OsaSoft opened 7 years ago

OsaSoft commented 7 years ago

As Ive been binging HnK recently, it came to mind that while playing an episode that it would be pretty handy to have a "Play Next" item in the rightclick menu of the status tray icon. Its basically just me being lazy 😸 I might pick up this and do it myself depending on whether I have some time to spare, but was wondering if anyone else would be interested in a feature such as this?

@OsaSoft You can just go right to the next episode without closing the video player (I use MPC-HC with the media keys on my keyboard to go to the next episode via the next track key, you can probably rebind the same function if you don't have a keyboard with media keys) and Taiga will detect that just fine, what you're asking for is unnecessary.

This is as simple as adding a single line to menu.xml, but I wonder how useful it would be. Does anyone actually use the tray icon menu?

Also note that this comment might help when you're binge-watching a series.

I actually never use the tray icon menu for anything like that (I only use the tray icon menu to exit Taiga), when I use Taiga it's going to be open fullscreen.

What's being asked here is something that the user can already do on their video player.

That has been occasions where I would click on the tray icon thinking I would be able to play the next episode.
Other than that I don't use any other features inside the tray menu.
