AB Repeat

[lakbo12]

It would be great if AB repeat functionality could be added to Musicbee.

This would be particularly great for videogame music soundtracks where it's optimal if the song repeats in a loop rather than repeating at the very end of a song (where the loop won't be as natural).

For example, if the AB repeat option is selected, the song will play until the "LOOPEND" metadata tag, which is measured in samples, and then repeats again from either the start of the song, or the "LOOPSTART" tag, which is also measured in samples.

There are several forum posts on this topic going back to 2010, and it would be great to see this finally implemented.

Thanks for all the hard work on Musicbee, it's genuinely an awesome application.

there is already start time and end time in tag editor. all that remains is to add a looping option

It could work like the A-B repeat button in the VLC advanced controls.

This is now available as a plugin hotkey: https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=41667

It would be useful to have an A-B repeat, to loop a section of a track.

Just realized I'd also supported this in the first week of my arrival here.

it's also possible to use Ctrl+d (for start and end) to create and save bookmarks
but the ab plugin is a really good idea for the real time use... thanks
