Playlist UX improvements

• The user should be able to reorder the current playlist and remove items from it using the platform way to do it :

• Swipe to remove

• Drag listener

• The remove behavior should be inversed :

• The user removes a track

• the list is refreshed

• the snackbar allows the user to undo the action

1. Be able to reorder a playlist is one of most needed features and makes the lists really usable
2. Swipe to remove would be also nice if you provide an undo option for false deleting
3. Save button - to save the list under the same name. It's better to let the user choose if to save the current editing or not
4. If you add new tracks or lists to one already existing list (overwrite save) the new tracks should be added at the end of the list and not mixed with the current ones

mentioned in merge request !22 (closed)

In fact it has already been done.

1. Done
2. Done with a cancel snackbar
3. We won't go that way. If you want to work on a copy, you can clone your playlist
4. It should work that way out of the box.

1+2. Very good, it will be tested
3. That won't be needed if the list is saved automatically after the changes are made. More important would be to have a exporting possibility of the lists. They are now stored in the root and an uninstall of vlc will lose all.
Not good if you edited them a lot before.
4. Not needed since you can reorder the tracks now

3. The way we implemented it is in fact the Android way. If you want to modify something (a playlist in that case), you can un-do any action but you are not proposed to save the modifications, they are applied along the way so the whole modification doesn't need to be saved.

More important would be to have a exporting possibility of the lists. They are now stored in the root and an uninstall of vlc will lose all.

It's out of this issue's scope. You should open another one.

About the playlist m3u import/export feature there is still an older request and it looks like that this is still considered: #211

The new playlist elements (move&delete) are very useful, tanks.
But there is an issue with these in the dark mode, wrong colors on font and background. I think these new dialogs have to be color inverted for the dark mode.

Fixed by !59 (merged) Thanks for the report!

changed milestone to %3.2
