The desired feature is an optical indication in the playlist/crate/other lists on a track, when it is loaded in some deck and/or playing in some deck and in which one - as another column in the lists view.

Similar feature in Traktor (Screenshot): https://mixxx.org/forums/download/file.php?id=2103
Simiar feature in VDJ (Screenshot): https://mixxx.org/forums/download/file.php?id=2104
Details explanation:
The longer the lists, the more complicated it gets, to find the actual playing track (and check some of it's attributes or hack the bpm in via properties), even if you ignored the original playlist order. Especially with similar looking material (several versions/remixes of one track) or very complex named tracks , mistakes are easy to make, when searching and picking the right track. Because the names are too similar and you have to double or triple check, which one is loaded (e.g. - for my case: Mix of Last Ninja 2 title, Last Ninja 2 mansion loader, Last Ninja subune 1 and Last ninja sid version). When using 4 decks, the phenomen can double.
Summary: It improves overview for everyone (I think), i definitely improves overview for complexer/special use cases, that are not so special :] |
