[Your Library] Search within all Playlists

Often, I'd like to find a song within one of my saved playlists.  I have a few playlists with over a thousand songs and this becomes difficult.  If I really want to listen to a certain song, I end up doing a general search, but then I have to go back to my playlist to continue listening there.  I'd like to be able to search within a playlist and then continue listening from that playlist.

Anyone tried this violet guru service? And where is the source code?

BACKGROUND

Currently, the search function has 8 return fields:

Top Result, Songs, Artists, Albums, Playlists, Podcasts & Shows, Episodes, and Profiles

 

SUGGUESTION

Add an additional field which shows all of the user's playlists which contain the song (or artist, or album) the user searched for.

@weertt: Yes, I tried it just now. It works, solves the problem.

But I have not looked for the sourcecode. Assuming client only. Being lazy. I am not even sure about the granularity of hte access. Hoping readonly. I am not too private about my playlists...

Salve, potete mettere anche riprodurre i file del dispositivo che si a sulla Memoria - Scheda SD, all'prossimo aggiornamento di Spotify. Come hanno messo YouTube Music che riproduce musica in Streaming e in più File del Dispositivo.

1. Aggiungere Artista con tutta la lista degli artisti che si ha sul dispositivo Memoria - Scheda SD. Cliccare sul profilo dell'artista e aggiungere la foto.

2. Aggiungere Playlist crea playlist. Con l'aggiunta della Foto che si desidera.

3. Aggiungere Album con tutta la lista degli album che si ha sul dispositivo Memoria - Scheda SD.

4. Aggiungere Brani con tutta la lista degli brani che si ha sul dispositivo Memoria - Scheda SD.

 

Aspetto il prossimo aggiornamento di Spotify.

Grazie, Arrivederci!!

Hi, I needed this function so I've developed an app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.romanello.SpotifyTools check it out if you also need it

That's great, stefy97100. I just tested it, works great. Have to use it on Android, but better than nothing.

@weert: You can also try https://violet.guru/ which does the same thing, but in a browser, works on desktop.

This has annoyed me quite often.

 

Now that I'm looking into it more, it's even more baffling that at the same time

  • you can search in a single playlist
  • you can search in literally everybody's public playlists

I'm trying to add songs from my old iTunes playlists to Spotify. Therefore, I like to add them to existing lists. However, I'd like to avoid adding songs to multiple lists. So now I have to search in every list first, multiplying the needed time by a factor 25 or so. Not workable.

I tried violet.guru several times on different days, but it keeps getting stuck at initializing: 

  • [11:10:11 AM] Loading tracks of 0 playlists
  • [11:10:11 AM] Initializing

Reported a bug, but no reaction.
