Restore the Current Track and Position

A queue storage adapter persists the tracks and history, and sync({ syncCurrent: true }) brings queue.current back. What it does not store is the live playback position — that changes every second, so you snapshot it yourself and re-seek after replaying.

Save player.position wherever you keep durable state — a database, Redis, or the player's own typed storage. Do it on a timer and on shutdown.

await persist(player.guildId, player.position);

Replay on restartCopy Anchor Link

After recreating the player, sync the queue to restore current, replay it, then seek to the saved position.

await player.queue.utils.sync({ syncCurrent: true });

const current = player.queue.current;
if (current) {
  await player.play({ track: current });
  await player.seek(savedPosition);
}
