Bug#613864: gst123: --shuffle doesn't (fwd)
Great, thanks Stefan! 2011/2/24 Stefan Westerfeld ste...@space.twc.de: Hi!

Current behavior: The same .ogg file can be played repeatedly, and playback doesn't seem to stop. Note: Shuffle seems to have been implemented as pick a random song each time and never stop. It should be implemented as shuffle the list of songs before playing it through top to bottom. Right, there is a difference between what gst123 does when called with --shuffle and what ogg123 does. Basically --shuffle in gst123-0.1.4 does the same thing like ogg123 --random (and the documentation also describes this behaviour). However, to make things less confusing, and to support a few new use cases, like yours, I've changed the options in gst123 to match the options ogg123 uses: -r, --repeat repeat playlist forever -z, --shuffle shuffle playlist before playing -Z, --random play files in random order forever The change is in my git repository and will be in the next gst123 release (gst123-0.1.5).
