Well, I don't know about your system, but playing my entire collection and then shuffling it would hose my system for quite a while, and I wouldn't be able to excise chrismas, comedy, spoken word genres which I only want to listen to sparingly or take advantage of the other Random mix bonuses like random album, etc. I think Random Mix is great, and it does everything I want it to, but I don't like the default dynamically added song behavior. If the functionality is already there to 'stop adding songs' it would seem trivial (especially since the option existed in previous incarnations) to make it a selectable option instead of the default behavior. If the majority like the plugin how it is, that's fine, but if someone could point me at where I may be able to hardcode the functionality so that songs aren't dynamically added, I'd appreciate it. I can't write code, but I can usually hack at it with mixed results. :) --G -- coldslabs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ coldslabs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=450 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17937 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
