PRESETS .... again

Answered
John Simon

I have 40 (C700).   I greatly wish that in the Android/IOS apps there was a "Presets" button along with the "Home" "Favorites" "Music"  "Players" and "Search".   When selected, it would bring up ALL of the presets (Tiles but smaller to fit them on one page ideally).

1.  it'd be GREAT for my wife and others who are not familiar with the BLUOS controller.   They "GET" the preset concept. 

2.  Great to see ALL of my choices on one persistent page quickly.

3.  Would be nice to be able to drag/drop these to quickly re-arrange


Thanks,

John

    Hi John

    Scroll to the bottom of the Home page and select Customize Home. You can then reorder by dragging the 3 lines to the right of presets and putting them first.

    Presets select View All for a listing of all presets, they are in numerical order, so we can't reorder them.

    You can use Follow Me to Copy Presets. Select your Preset on Player 1. Open the Player Tab and select the Follow Me icon to switch the music to a different Player. From the now Playing Screen, save that current content as Preset on the new destination Player from the context menu (3 dots) on the right side of the track's title and tap Add Preset.

    I hope this tricks and tips help...

    Hi Tony,

        Thanks for the fast response!   I already have customised my Home page and placed the Presets at the top quite long ago!

        I am aware also of the View All, and use it many times per day.... which is what I'm trying to avoid.   Having a (persistent) page availabe with ALL the presets will preclude me from having to view all AND then also scroll through them.  I think most folks have fewer than 40 but I'd like 80... and with more than about 12 you need a better way to access them.   

     

    Also, due to your response I'm just learning that my presets are player specific!   I need to transfer 40 from my main to my outside player!    I see you say use "Follow me" but I cannot find that anywhere.   I"m using a windows PC and BLUOS Controller mainly.    Can you help me find this command?   


    Thanks again,

    John

    Found it ... thanks!   Still hoping for an improved BluOS with a full page of Presets that is persistent   (Stay "under" the now playing and when "now playing" is closed.... it appears ready to go if the user has chosen it to be under the now playing that is).

    So found the "follow me" and it sends the music to player 2, but there is no way to make a preset on player 2 from that.   I go to now playing and the 3 dots menu does not include "add preset".    I'm using a preset of my library playlist.   It does seem to work for Calm Radio, maybe others but not for the library?
