New issue 1537 by marcelpa...@gmail.com: --play-file automatically adds
file to the library
https://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/issues/detail?id=1537

"quodlibet --play-file" automatically adds the file to the library. I would
expect it not to add it, so that QL could be used to play singleton files
from, for instance, a file manager — I want to use it to play files from
Midnight Commander and mp3diags.

I experimented with different browsers, but the file is always added, even
if the current browser is "FileSystem".

I'm running QL 3.3.1-0~ppa0~utopic on Xubuntu 14.10.

I've just installed QL 3.3.99+7452~c016a77b5904-0~ppa0~utopic (I'm tracking
ppa:lazka/dumpingplace), and now --play-file doesn't seem to do anything,
it just returns to the bash prompt without any action on the running QL
instance.

Did you restart QL after updating. I've changed some things that makes that
necessary.

My sincerest apologies, Christoph, for wasting your time with such my
trivial mistake: I hadn't restarted QL after the upgrade. --play-file
indeed is not adding the song to the library anymore. Thanks for the fix !

No problem. Thanks for the report.

btw: QL currently doesn't filter the browser to show the song passed with
--play-file (e.g. switch to the right album in the album browser). Would
you prefer that or the current behavior?

I think that the current behavior is perfect, since it doesn't touch the
album/song which was previously playing, so that it can resume where it was
interrupted by the --play-file song. Your solution seems excellent to me.
