Maximum queue size?

Postby GRUPP » 04 Oct 2018, 20:59

I'm trying to create a playlist that contains all of my non-Christmas, non-classical songs. Admittedly, that's a LOT of music, maybe 5,000 songs. I'm only able to get about half way (about 2300) songs. After that, the queue doesn't seem to accept any additional songs. Is there a maximum number of songs that can be in the queue at once?

Hi Rick,

the "max_playlist_length" can be defined in mpd.conf.
On a standard installation it is not set, so mpd (the music player daemon used by Rune) uses its default.

max_playlist_length <number>
This specifies the maximum number of songs that can be in the playlist. The default is 4096.

After testing, you can add this parameter automatically to the mpd.conf file by logging in via SSH and executing this command:
Code: Select all
redis-cli hset mpdconf max_playlist_length 6000
In this example the limit will be set to 6000. You need to reboot to activate it, after that it will always be included automatically. You can check this in the Debug UI.

Once you reboot, it will be permanently enabled and available to you. Through the Debug User Interfacecolor by number, you may verify this.

Most popular music streaming platforms, such as Spotify and Apple Music, impose limits on the number of songs you can include in a playlist. Typically, these limits hover around 10,000 songs. If you encounter this maximum threshold, you will need to divide your collection into multiple playlists or explore alternative solutions. While I lack precise information on every platform's restrictions, it is advisable to consult the platform's documentation or support resources to obtain the most accurate and current details.

In addition to platform-specific limitations like Google Bard, you can consider creating a local music library on your device using music management software. This approach allows you to organize and create playlists without encountering the restrictions imposed by streaming platforms. Alternatively, you may explore third-party software or applications that provide features to handle larger playlists, although they may have their own limitations.
