Hello again, this has now been added! Let me know if you have any issues or feedback otherwise.

I decided not to add a dedicated looping region setting for now. You can still set a preview section and loop that, if applicable.

I added a loop toggle button to the player, which allows you to loop the playlist or a single track repeatedly. I didn’t add the shift-click play to loop, I figure the loop button toggle is more intuitive. I may change my mind later

Hi, this is super cool! Thank you so much for adding the new feature! 💖

I've updated the player on my loop pack. The only problem at the moment seems that the loops are not seamless 🤔

I also don't think the shift click is intuitive, especially on mobile 🤷

Hm good point, I didn’t test seamless looping. That may be tricky/unfeasible to fix, but I’ll look into it!

Hi, I’ve made a new update to hopefully make looping more seamless, let me know if it works for you.

The solution is a bit of a workaround, and may not be 100% consistent. a more correct solution requires me to rework the entire audio playback system. I’ll consider it another time

Yup :) Thank you for all your hard work! :)

I don't think this would warrant a rewrite unless there are a lot of people asking for it :)

I don't know if this is a side effect, but if I drag and drop the config file into the playlist it does use some of the config data, but the ⭐ seems to be a bit weird. I have to check again. So what seems to be happening is that when I set the star to something else, after I download the zip, that seems to reset to the previous (or in this case the first track in the list)

Aside: I don't know if you do this, but do you use the starred track info from the config file? If so, maybe use the loop count info also 🙈 because otherwise one has to manually put those numbers etc in again. Not super important, but thought I'd let you know :)

oh, good catch! Thanks for pointing that out. I forgot to account for the new track info with the config overwriting feature. I’ve uploaded a new version which should fix the featuring issue, and should now also load in all the other track info (loop count, locked state, preview settings, etc.)
