Description
Description
When closing a content that has been opened from a playlist, Retroarch takes you back to Main Menu
Expected behavior
Retroarch should take you back to the last game (content) you have opened, so you can continue browsing
the current list at the current position, making much easier to play the next game.
Actual behavior
Retroach takes you back to the Main Menu instead, so you need to go back to the playlist again and look for the
game you just played. When you have thousands of games for that list, it makes the process extremely long
and repetitive.
Steps to reproduce the bug
- Go to a playlist you have generated for a particular system.
- Browse the list, select and game and run it.
- When you have finished playing it, close the content to keep browsing and play the next game in that list.
- Retroarch takes you back to the Main Menu tab instead.
- Now you need to do everything from step 1 again.

Reproduce on the PS Vita flow described: open content from a playlist, close it, and observe the transition to Main Menu; then trace playlist navigation and content-closing behavior. Done means closing content returns to the current playlist at the previously selected position.
