Playlists are sources which are created from the tracks available in
the Library source. They enable you to gather tracks following a
particular 'genre', a specific group of artists, or even tracks that
are of a particular 'mood', or whatever you want.
Rhythmbox Music Player has 2 kinds of playlists:
-
Static Playlists
-
Smart Playlists
Rhythmbox lets you burn the tracks of your playlists to an Audio CD.
Static playlists are playlists built from tracks dropped from the Library.
To create a new playlist, right-click on an item in the library. Select
. An empty playlist without name
appears in the side pane. Enter a name for the playlist and press
Enter.
To add tracks to a playlist, select tracks from the track
list from the library and drag and drop your selection over the
playlist icon in the side pane.
You can also drop over a playlist a genre, an artist, or an
album name from the browser, and all the tracks that belongs
to the chosen category will be added to the playlist.
You can create a playlist with tracks in one action. Select tracks from
the Tracks List, or directly one or more categories from
the browser (Genre, Artist or
Album) and drop the selection over the Side
pane. It will automatically create a named playlist.
To remove tracks from a playlist, first select the tracks to
remove. Then, right-click over the selection and choose .
This operation deletes the track only from playlist and not
from the Library.
Smart Playlists are playlists built from criteria, so tracks
are added to it dynamically; all of the tracks matching the
criteria will be added to the playlist.
By default, the playlists ,
, and
are available.
