Music app has no Delete function

[Csernátoni Csaba]

There is "Add to queue" and "Add to playlist" only - there should be the option to delete the marked songs/albums.

On this issue I have to disagree. Casual apps such as this should provide only non-destructive actions to the user. File management is a separate area of concern.

I think this refers to being able to remove a song from the queue or a playlist, not physical deletion of the song itself.

[Csernátoni Csaba (csaba-csernatoni)]

C'mon, let's just take a real life example. I receive a decent amount of
songs from my friend. I naturally use the media player to check them out.
What if I don't like most of them? After listening to each, I switch to
File Manager, delete, switch back to the next one in Media Player, and so
on? Why the hell can't I just say "no, I don't need this one", and send it
to Heaven, from Media Player???

If this is about deleting tracks from the filesystem, then this is a duplicate of bug 1463052.

Please can you confirm if this bug is reporting that the playlist/queue track removal doesn't work or that you should be able to remove tracks from the filesystem from the music-app ?

[Andrew Hayzen (ahayzen)]

Deleting entries from playlists or the queue are done by swiping (if this doesn't work please report a new bug), but deleting of an actual file from the filesystem is bug 1463052. Therefore I'm going to mark this bug as a duplicate of bug 1463052. Please look at the other bug report to see if there is any missing information that you can provide, or to see if there is a workaround for the bug. Additionally, any further discussion regarding the bug should occur in the other report. Feel free to continue to report any other bugs you may find.
