values will shorten the music buffer, so you should increase this setting
only
if
you have directories with a large number of files.
Max Playlist Size:
This setting controls the maximum size of a playlist. The playlist
size can be between 1,000 and 32,000 files, in steps of 1,000 (default is 10,000).
Higher values will shorten the music buffer, so you should increase this setting
only
if you have very large playlists.
7.7. Bookmarking
Bookmarks allow you to save your current position within a track so that you can return
to it at a later time. Bookmarks are saved on a per directory basis (for dynamic playlists)
or for individual (saved) playlists. They are stored next to the directory/playlist they
reference. You can store multiple bookmarks for the same track.

file the current position information
will be added to the front of the existing list, up to the maximum number of
allowed bookmarks per file (currently 10). If no

file exists, one will be
created with the new bookmark information. Finally, if the M
