I made a command to assign Preset#1 to the last remaining unused long
press on my button board (PRE1=[“button”,”preset_1.single”]).

The command triggers fine, but does nothing, and I now realise that I
had confused my presets with my favourites!  I've never really bothered
with either, so was (am) a bit confused about the differences.  I'm
running pCP3.5.0 on a 3B+.

Am I right that Favourites are LMS-wide, whereas Presets are
device-dependent?

I looked for a way to assign a favourite to a button command but
couldn't find a suitable command.  I'll look again, but if there isn't a
way, then assigning that favourite to a preset, and then issuing the
above 'preset_1.single' command would suffice.  But I can't see how to
assign presets on Squeezelite/pCP.  I think there isn't an interface
method to do this, so maybe I have to edit a file on the server
somewhere.

I suppose an alternative would be to make another button command to
assign the current playlist to preset#1.  I'll look for such an option.

Does anyone have any advice on how to use presets/favourites in
Squeezelite/pCP?  i realise that presets didn't really make much sense
for a headless software player, but the arrival of this SqueezeButtonPi
daemon makes them more relevant.
