Hello!
In a direct comparison to BPM Studio, I'm missing a list of tracks that have been played. It really help to answer questions like: "what was that song you played 15 minutes ago after xyz", Another cause that I need such a list is that I'm DJing at a place where everyone has it's own machine, each one with a different setup and different software. So we need to check at each other's computers on what's been played to avoid doubles. BPM Studio has such a list, Traktor has such a list, only in Virtual DJ I need to maintain a seperate list or must save the history and open it in a text editor. And imho this really sucks big time.
I've been working around this gap by misusing the side list for it, but that's by far not a good solution, since this thing needs to be updated by hand.
So here's my suggestion: let a right click on the "side list" label toggle between "side list" and "played list". That should be a rather simple solution to put something like that in.

VDJ have a history list. Playlist have a random option for all played song and make always a extra list of all played songs today when vdj new open.

Yes, I know. but these are just workarounds and not a fix for the problem. A simple and straight forward list of tracks played as it is available in any other DJ software I've used so far, so why not in VDJ?

I agree with svolli, I like to see in the browser a column with the last time of the played song and how many time the song was played in the past.
I think this will be a good features, thanks to this any djs can't repeat the same song a lot of time.

You can see your played tracks in \playlists => working.

So the solution would be to add in the playlist options for the playlist pannel and/or on right click on playlist: Set as played.
That way, you copy the current working playlist to another computer then you open VDJ and right click on the playlist and set all songs as played. So the dj won't play those songs in his set.
