Title: Keyboard shortcut to repeat one track
Post by: J24 on May 18, 2016, 04:21:57 AM
Currently its possible to set a keyboard shortcut to toggle between repeat off and repeat all but there is not shortcut to repeat one track. I use repeat one all the time so I think having a keyboard shortcut for that would be helpful. Maybe it would be one keyboard shortcut to toggle between the 3 repeat states? or maybe a separate keyboard shortcut for repeat one only?

Is there a reason why this shortcut was not added?

Probably because in the year-plus since you posted the original request, no one else has also asked for it.

Among the criteria that Steven uses in implementing a wishlist request are the popularity of the request and the ease of implementing it. I'm sure there are other criteria, but those two come to mind immediately.

I hope they do add it. Was surprised it doesn't work.

Just switched from iTunes to MB, srsly impressed! I should've known there'd be a better alternative out there, wish I'd looked sooner heh.

Anyway, just wanted to chime in on this thread. The Shuffle keyboard shortcut *does* cycle through all 3 of its possible states, so it was a little weird to find that the Repeat keycut skips one (just alternates Repeat Off and Repeat All). After a whole first night of fiddling and customizing, this is literally the only complaint I have - it would honestly save me a lot of clicking in the future if Repeat One via keyboard were fixed/added (and it's like, a 30 second programming change). But I'm really, really happy with MB so I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, I'm really not, this thing is awesome. :)
Title: Any way to switch to "repeat one" and back with hotkeys?

The (toggle: repeat one) hotkey skips repeat one. Is this intended or a bug? Makes the hotkey kinda useless, is there a way around this? Thanks.

I would like to bump this request. The lack of a repeat one toggle is highly annoying and seems like an easy fix - please implement this! Seems standard to have in good players like ncmpcpp (which is what I hold musicbee against).

You don't know what's easy or hard to implement. Maybe just request things without trying to goad the developer into it.

It's been 6 years since I requested this but not giving up on this feature just yet! 🤞
