Re: [Suggestions / Wishlists] for future updates

I would like to know if it has ever happened in the history of foobar that a suggestion posted in this thread was actually implemented. I'm pretty sure this thread is where wishes go to die. But it wouldn't be any better making a thread for each and every wish you have, because that would clutter up the forum, and none of the program or component developers are under any obligation to grant our wishes since they're doing this for free. The best thing you can do (barring learning to code components for yourself) would be to post any bugs you find and make suggestions in the appropriate thread for components which have relevant functionality to what you want to see. That said, I am unable to learn to code right now due to health reasons, and I have a few wishes that seem like they would be very easy to implement if the primary developer or any component developer would like. 1. Add the "Reset the above when stopping" (for "Stop playback after the current track" in the Playback options screen) to a menu so it can be made into a visibly-active button on the toolbar. 2. Add an option to reset volume to a specific level after program restart. 3. Add Playback/Seek/Back to beginning (Main menu item) among the back by 30 seconds, etc. 4. Add Playback Order: Repeat (Album). Aside from a few minor or major appeals regarding component functionality I have made in their respective threads, that is the entirety of my wishlist for foobar2000 now. (Though getting some abandoned 32 bit-only components to work on 64 bit foobar would be nice too, as a pipe dream...) To be fair, these wishes are all incredibly minor, and foobar2000 is magnificently functional and useful to me, so I want to say thank you to Peter and all of the other developers. No other music player could come even close.
