When called interactively from within a playlist buffer,
`emms-playlist-set-playlist-buffer' should present a completing read of
all playlist buffers. Is this not what you see?
--> No, I only see completion for the current playlist (even though I have
multiple)...strange.
Until I get to the bottom of this I'll instead interact with playlists
through `emms-metaplaylist-mode-go' as you suggested (as well as M-n and
M-p)
--> good to know about `emms-toggle-single-track', but shame it doesn't
work currently with mpv
Because of this I tried to use VLC, but the problem is when I close the
player the audio still plays, any ideas why?
`emms-bookmarks.el' is a very simple implementation and doesn't have
search. Were you thinking of a completing read? That shouldn't be hard
to implement.
--> completing read would be great! If you don't work on it, I hope to
someday (I'm still early in my elisp journey!)
--> I guess there's no way to insert text or rearrange the metaplaylist
buffer is there?
Thanks Yoni!
