Restore last position

[bergentroll]

I am a pragha v1.3.3 user, I also tried the latest git version.

There is an inconvenience for me — pragha restores playlist on start fine, but it does not restore song position or just a playlist position, so I need to remember the last track and manually navigate to it.

There will be great to have an option to restore position.

(I hope, project is still alive? I find pragha the best GTK3 player (for me), and I tried MANY players, so thank you for it!)

Hi @bergentroll

Pragha still does not remember where in which part of the song is playing, but remember what was the song you played last time.
It works like this? If not, with what environment are you using it?.

I'm just publishing a minor version, with some corrections. Maybe you should try it .. 😉

Yes .. The project is alive, but the next version turned out to be more ambitious than expected. At least with the free time that I have. 😅
For this, I preferred to release a version with small corrections, waiting for the next one. 👐

Hi, @matiasdelellis, and thank you for reply on my issue!

As I said, I tried the latest commit, and it has the same issue. I am using pragha on Archlinux distribution with Xfce 4.12 DE.

After your reply I checked something, and it seems I know what breaks the thing in my case. My music collection path is ~/music, but ~/music is a symlink to NFS directory, that has automount Systemd unit. When I just close pragha and open it again ­the last playlist position is selected. But if I remount the NFS dir while pragha is closed, pragha loses the last played song. That's odd for me a bit…🙃

Hi again @bergentroll ,

Ok. In this case, it should work correctly, but I must admit that the support is rudementary.

Honestly it does not make any sense.. 😅 , but I will continue investigating, since I made corrections in another branch.. 😉 😄

Thanks for the patience.. 😉
