    @Kurgen Hmm, well I have only tested it on the filter playlist. If you goto about:config and set songbird.focustrack.debug to true then you can see messages in the Error Console under messages.

    Error: [Exception...

    Hi,

    could you please add the ability to fucus the track in "Now Playling List" if this addon is installed?

    Also it would be useful to make it the other way - start playing a focused song after the current one finishes.

    Is it meant to switch from the tab I'm browsing in back to the library just to show which track it just focused on? Coz that's what it did for me.
    Every time the song changes I get switched back to the library from whatever tab I'm in (as long as I'm still in Songbird, haven't been switched from another application over to Songbird).

    It's not working for me too. Maybe you need to test your add-ons on Windows before releasing them ?

    It works great now with the most recent update. Thanks for the much needed extension. Hopefully this feature gets merged into trunk before release.

    does this addon focus on the track in the library playlist instead of a playlist manually created?

    Works great with MediaFlow (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addons/238)

    This addon doesn't work with Songbird 1.0.0rc1, could you please update it?

    An update to this add-on would be great. Or maybe a core implementation?

    Most music players out there either focus the track that's being played, or offer a way to do it. I wish songbird could do something like this. :)

    Ok, my bad, Songbird does enable you to go to the currently played track. You have to click the track name displayed in the player part.

    Now works in 1.0 RC2, which is great. It works fine, but as with the “focus current track” functionnality (clicking the track name in the player part) the focused track is displayed either at the top or at the bottom of the list. Using one of these options every time would be great. Predictability is an important part of an interface's usability.

    I would go with the focused track in the middle of the viewport, or at the top with maybe a few tracks shown above it for context. But anything is ok as long as it's predictable.

    @florentv Well that is up to the media view, since each media view will highlight differently :).
