From 70087fb9f383af48c5fecb1aa275f4a68cda3298 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aidan MacDonald Date: Sat, 9 Apr 2022 15:55:10 +0100 Subject: apps: Change playlist context menu behavior, fix FS#13336 Rename the "Clear List & Play" options to simply Play and Play Shuffled, and change their behavior slightly. Previously they would leave the current song playing, but now they will start playing the first song of the new playlist immediately. Shuffle options are now consistently hidden whenever a single file is selected. Fixes FS#13336 -- Play Shuffled is now always displayed where applicable, regardless of playback state.
