What sets SnackAmp apart from most music players and playlist managers is its ease of use. If you have hundreds to thousands of music files, and get tired of managing individual playlists or organizing files by genre, the auto-playlist feature is for you. You use the auto-playlist manger to organize your files within a directory structure in you media library as you see fit - typically music type, artist, then album. You can then select individual folders (or folder trees) and save those settings under a name. Applying that auo-playlist will create a playlist with all of the files sorted per the sorting option in effect.
The Auto-playlist manager is launched using the
button on the main user interface, or
selecting the Auto-Playlists/Manage Auto-Playlists menu selection.
With the Auto-playlist feature, you can save settings that reflect your musical preference rather than specific songs. For instance Classical, Hard Rock, Dance, Relaxation would all be appropriate names. Each file you save will show up in the Auto-playlists menu to allow you to apply it easily.
At the top of the Auto Playlist window you will find a search entry box. You may search for folders by entering some of the text and pressing Enter or selecting the Search button. If you hit Ctrl-Enter, you will locate the next matching file instead. You may also use the search icons to the left of the search entry box.
At the top of Auto Playlist selecting the History menu (or down arrow) will show a history of the recently visited folders. You also have navigation buttons to go through the history list. These are useful when you are moving files around.
