regarding features amarok is definitely the best music prog out there
but theres one thing that really annoys me:
switching between playlists takes way to long...

switching between small playlists with about 100 songs is annoying,
switching between normal playlists with 1k or 2k songs is just unbearably

loading a playlist (with songs that are already @ the db) shouldn't take more than 1 or 2 secs...

Check out CVS HEAD. Tags are now read from the Collection if available -> much faster.

mkay? im using the cvs version (updated ~5 hours ago)

am i doin anything wrong?

dunno if i did make it clear enough: it is still **** slow

im kinda new 2 cvs stuff, just do it the way it's described @the cvs section
do i have 2 enable anything else? are there different versions @cvs?

*dumb*

There are different versions in CVS (the whole point of CVS), but you'd have to know what your doing to get them.

hm is someone out there who could explain me how to get a version with the faster playlist switching? 8]

1.2-beta1.

It works for all tracks which are in your Collection. The first time you drag items to the playlist, tags are read from the harddisk (slow). Next time you drag the same items, the tags are read from the Collection database, which is much faster. It is much like a cache.
