Max,

I'll give your plugin a spin, but a bit of feedback based on this
comment.

- plugin always maintains 9 (or as per preference) songs after current
one if in track mode

One of the things I really like about Slimserver shuffle mode is that I
can go back thru the playlist and replay a good song or just check out
the name of something obscure in my collection. Other random play modes
in MP3 players don't allow this as the last track played just disappears
and hitting the back button just brings you to another random track.

I'm hoping the new Random mix mode doesn't delete the last played
song.

What I'd recommend is that for a playlist of N songs, you wait until
N/2 have played before dropping the oldest song of the top of the
playlist and adding a new song to the end.

So in the case of a playlist of 10 items, the oldest only dissapears
after the 5th song has finished playing.

Mick
