Hi,

the playlist feature is a good start.

  1. additional events
    It would be great to have additional events:
  • track finished event: triggered when a track playback was finished and the next track
  • track started event: triggered when a track playback was started or even started again after pause - focused on tracks instead of the whole playlist
  • playback nearly finished event: triggered when the last track of the playlist was started
  1. Enqueue feature
    For filling the playlist at nearly finished, it would be great to have an enqueue feature which will add tracks to the playlist instead of replacing.

I would need such a feature to implement the radio skill we currently already have for alexa, also for google assistant.

The events about started/finished/paused/resumed track is needed for our performance reporting and playback history.

Thank you for your feature requests. I have filed tickets internally with the Media API team.

@taycaldwell thanks. Would be nice if those features would be implemented. Thanks.

Would also be nice if you keep me up to date. Or if there's a beta test of that, I'll be happy to test. As we really like to implement that action for the google users.

Yes, these features would be very useful for us as well. It would also be great to be able to assign each media object a unique id that can be used accessed within the media status intent context.
