By the way, if you don't want to wait for the next OpenMPT release to see if the changes work for you, you can download a test build from https://builds.openmpt.org/builds/ (use a portable download if you don't want to mess with your existing OpenMPT environment) - from the "next branch" downloads, or alternatively you can choose the "Next" update channel in the update settings. The next regular update will probably come next weekend, so there would still be time to tweak some stuff if it's necessary.

There isn't. Why would you want to disable it?

So to me the first tune in a 'sequence' would be the main tune and the rest sub songs? (I'm confusing myself just thinking about it)

As far as OpenMPT lingo is concerned, any part of the module that is completely disconnected from any other parts of the module is a subsong - so it's not like there is a "main song" and many "sub songs" following afterwards, the main song is rather the first subsong, then anything you put separately is the second, third, etc. subsong. Subsongs can be either complete sequences (if they play through completely) or any disconnected parts within a sequence. I hope that clears that up

ModPlug Player 2 Alpha 5 for macOS (Apple Silicon) is now available for download.
The application is signed and officially notarized by Apple (signing, notarization, and stapling have been completed).
It is recognized as safe by Gatekeeper and runs without any warnings or errors.

For my use case, I use the sequence function to separate the songs, but... in the process of working on a tune I move patterns out of the main tune just to keep them in case I want to integrate them back in, and sometimes have multiple groups outside the main sequence. This is what was causing me confusion. So to me the first tune in a 'sequence' would be the main tune and the rest sub songs? (I'm confusing myself just thinking about it)

I still think your idea of automatically selecting the active sequence is a good one, then you can select any subsongs in that sequence if the first one Isn't the one you are after (in my case it would pretty much always be the first in a sequence as the rest are usually just the 'left overs')

I appreciate the extra work this involves outside the usual work on this project, so thank you for the time you've put into this.

This is now changed for the next OpenMPT 1.32 update to pre-populate the subsong choice with the currently edited subsong.

Note that this isn't as easy as it may sound, so there are a few caveats to keep in mind:

- If all you use are sequences in the MPTM format, and a single sequence only contains a single song each, things are simple.
- However, if multiple subsongs are present in the same sequence, it is not at all clear which subsong should be the one selected by default: You can open multiple pattern editors at the same time. The currently edited subsong can also differ from the currently playing subsong. When the stream/MIDI/VGM export dialog is opened, it will take the edit position of the last active window, even if t currently doesn't show a pattern editor. It doesn't matter which subsong may currently be playing.

I think that would work, at least it would take the guesswork out a bit. I streamed 4 different tunes yesterday before I found the one I'd been working on.

That's my only niggle with 1.32, so you're doing something right (I am a picky little...)
