Anyone try the new node update ? After the last update I'm afraid to.

I found a video explaining how the Bluesound cueue works. It showed how to build a "que list" and then choose any album in the library and play it. Go back to queue and now that album has been added.

This is how BluOs has always worked until the latest updates. BUT this was an old instructional video using an early firmware version.

This update loaded perfectly. I've had many connectivity problems in the past.

Question: has anybody reported the screwy way the queue works? You lose all the current songs when you play a new album. I can't be the only one who's noticed this change.

Let me clarify, in previous BluOs versions you could add songs or albums to the queue and build a playlist. If you started to play a new album or added it to the queue all songs remained until you deleted or modified them.

Now, the queue is deleted when you select a random album. Only said album will appear in the queue.

found a workaround for the disappearing que problem.  Let's say that you have 10 songs in your current que.  If you search an album and just hit the album it will delete your que and replace it with the album you selected,

The workaround:  If you want to add an album and retain your que, hit the 3 dots (aka hamburger) next to the album and you get options.  If you hit "add next", it will insert the album after what ever is playing and retain the que.  If you hit "add last" it will add the album at the end of your que and retain everything above it.  Hope this helps, cheers.

 Actually, a couple of days ago I realised that procedure would work. But it only took a second for me to screw up and click on an album in my Favorites. Queue status...gone.

I do appreciate you sharing this workaround with the forum.

I’m using Android. Does the queue feature have limited function for anyone else on this thread? I know I’ve hijacked the thread, but the OP’s question has been answered.

I guess I'll contact Bluesound.
