Disable autoplay after loading playlist

Hello

I am new to this forum but I have been using foobar for about, huh, 6 years (+- a year) and since it is my only audio player... Had no problems with it, found the support on this forum (just by searching previuos posts), wiki,...

Now I came up with a "challenge"... A friend of mine is a musician, 3-man band style playing national music. He needs to start playing the desired background music by triggering it with predefined keys from keyboard. He has his music grouped into several playlists. So far he was doing it with winamp, but he has some problems...
Now I have suggested to try with foobar.

Now, I have no problem creating a new playlist. But what I want to happen is that when I would double click on the playlist, foobar would open, load the playlist and NOT start playing the music from it. So no auto play...
How could I achieve that? I have read a bit about commandLine. Is this the right way to go? Could I get some pointers on that matter?

Thanks in advance,


Best regards,
Vedro

Not possible AFAIK. Set "Enqueue" as the default action will prevent foobar from automatically playing, but there is no remedy to prevent all the playlists being loaded into the same playlist in foobar.
