Turned off "Only Play One Thing at a Time" but no joy

BugCompletedReport This Post
Oct 5

M5 Pro Mac, Zen browser (firefox), Apple Music. My goal is to leave the music playing in the background while watching tutorial videos on Youtube in the Zen browser. I unchecked the "one thing" box and restarted the app, but it is still pausing. Even more annoyingly, when I roll over videos in YouTube, it pauses the music because YT wants to start playing audio. Am I doing something incorrectly? Thank you - super cool app.

Rob, thanks for sending this in and giving us the details on what's happening with the setting. We'll get this looked into and any updates we find will show up here in this thread.

Rob, the latest update gives you exactly this.

Echo 1.0.24 lets you choose what happens when you start something new. Once you've updated, open Echo's Settings, go to Playback, and set Pause What's Playing to Except Music. Your Apple Music will keep playing while you watch tutorials in Zen, and starting a new video will still pause the one before.

Echo also now recognises Zen as a browser, so hovering over videos on YouTube leaves your music playing.

Echo should ask you to update automatically, and if not, you can open Settings and check for updates.

Any other issues or feedback, please just get back in touch and let us know.
