"Pandora" playlist

Listening to some tunes using the Pandora feature, and like it a lot!

Wondering if it's possible to create some sort of auto-playlist that will keep adding songs to a specified playlist (on a per-user basis), based on the songs that are played in this fashion.

For example, the Pandora feature plays one song at a time, then chooses another similar song at random. Each time a song is chosen, it's also added to a constantly updated playlist that the user can save and play back at a later time.

I think you can already do this.

In Madsonic =>Settings | Pandora | Pandora Result Size
Increase this number to a large value like 100.
When the next song is played in pandora mode it will create a playlist of 100 songs. Turn off Pandora mode and save the playlist if you want.

Thanks boco!

It looks like if I increase the number, it will generate a full playlist, and then I can select some or all of the songs, and then choose the "add to playlist" option to save to an existing playlist, or "save as playlist" to create a new one!

Looks like the "Pandora Result Size" setting may have gone away (perhaps intentionally) between v. 5.0 build 3660 and build 3700 -- seamless reload of the Pandora mode playlist after it plays through works fine, though.
