Fix browser rank feature
Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2014 2:52 pm
When DJ'ing with Live I sometimes play very long sets, and one feature I missed from Traktor is the ability to see what songs I already played. With Live 9 I thought that the new rank feature would be a way to easily see what tracks has been played, and even better, sort played tracks away at the bottom.
Unfortunately it seems to be a very strangely implemented feature which is struggle to see any sensible use for.
First issue is that there isn't any way to clear the rank. Deleting the whole files database before I start playing is an ok workaround for me, but ideally it should be possible to clear per category or folder.
What seems really strange is that it includes browser previews as well.
I guess for any kind of usage scenario it would be preferable if usage count only increased when using a file in a project, not when previewing.
If this cannot easily be fixe, a 1-5 stars ranking feature would be much more useful for most users I would guess, and I could also make use of it to mark played tracks.
