Bookplayer: Reset playback position of all files in a playlist

[Guy27]

please allow to reset "heard" status for all chapters of a book at once (playlist).

Thanks for bringing this up. This is an oversight from when we separate playback position from finished state and will be added.

This can already be done though with the latest version in the appstore. You have to swipe left on the playlist item in the table, and from the options you can affect all the items if you press 'Mark as unfinished'

[GianniCarlo]

What we should do and have had talks about it, is evolve the bulk edit to provide more options instead of just sort | move | trash. But for the time being this can already be accomplished for individual playlists

@GianniCarlo as I wrote: Mark as unfinished does not reset playback positions only the finished state.

[GianniCarlo]

Oh right, I misunderstood the intent of the issue 😅. Mmmmm the separation thing was intended like it is now. If you want to reset playback, there's an option 'Jump to start' which if applied in the way I described before, it'll reset all the playlist's items playback position

[pichfl]

I'm the one who missed your point, you're of course right. Maybe we need to rename "jump to start" for playlists to "Reset playback position"?

[GianniCarlo]

yeah that could be a good option, 'jump to start' certainly isn't conveying well its message

[Guy27]

thanks guys, i agree with the proposed solution. it will be much clearer
