Reorder Playlist

Just a quick suggestion: A quick way to reorder items in the playlist. This can be achieved by highlighting an item in the playlist, clicking the menu button and selecting either "Move Up" or "Move Down". I am currently using the playlist ordering system on new episodes, but sometimes I just want to listen to them in a different order.

Hi Eric,

I can add something to more them up or down, but keep in mind that if you're using the auto-sort feature that will get wiped out the next time an episode is added.

I'm with Eric on this one.

Auto-sort is great but I find myself jumping around the playlist while in the car depending on what I feel like listening to. Would it be possible to override the auto-sort and create an iPodish "On-The-Go" mode?

I'd like to see a "Move" option (doesn't need to be "Up" or "Down") similar to the way you can reorder wifi hotspot priority in the Blackberry system - just select a podcast, click "Move" to toggle and make it sticky and "grab" it, and then scroll up or down until you find the desired spot on the playlist and then click again to "drop" it.

Hi guys, when you're doing stuff like this, is it generally just one episode you want to hear right now? Or are you thinking you'll actually be resorting a lot of them?

Definitely resorting. For my 30 minute commute I'd like to be able to drag 30 minutes of whatever I feel like listening to to the top of the queue :D

Ok, I'll see what I can do.

For now it's worth noting that (as of 2.0.2) you can hit space on any podcast in the playlist to put it at the very top of the list and requeue whatever is currently playing.

Hey cool, Marcus, thanks for this. I've tried 2.0.2 out and I must say the new spacebar functionality is awesome.
