Playlist preview shuffle and repeat buttons (clicking .m3u in file browser)
This app is lovely. I was using the Audio Player app for the longest time, but this is way better lol.
I would love to have the option to shuffle and repeat a playlist (similar to the buttons at the far right of the controls window when playing a playlist in the app) but while playing a .m3u playlist in the Files app.
After clicking a playlist file in the Files app, the shuffle and loop buttons are straight-up missing. I'm sure this is because there's a different complexity to playing playlist files from the Files app compared to importing them directly in the Music app.
The issue is that playlists can't be imported, played, and shuffled/looped from a public share link. However, playlist files are fully capable of being played from a public share url because it's essentially just the Files app. It's just that - as mentioned before - the options for shuffle and repeat are missing.
Actually, the "repeat" feature is always used when playing files within the Files or Share app. But there is no button to deactivate it if desired, and the shuffle is not implemented there.
The way the shuffle, repeat, and manual changing of tracks interact with each other to modify the play queue and history, is probably the most complex part of the whole Music app. This logic is also implemented in such a way that it cannot be directly shared with the "lite player" used within Files and Share apps. That's why I haven't implemented these toggles for the lite player so far. But refactoring this logic to be shareable between apps should not be impossible, and maybe one day I have time to do it.
