On the plus side, your comment about Random Mix is very appropriate. I always wanted to post something in the forum about how seemingly non-random Random Mix is. Of the 2700 (actually it's 2800) tracks I have, SlimServer Random Mix has ~100 favourites that I can almost guarantee I'll hear every time I start Random Mix. I also notice if Random Mix picks an artist, there's a better-than-chance likelihood (I give it 75%) that the next track it'll pick is by the same artist, although interestingly never from the same album. I didn't post this because I assume Random Mix uses a Perl random function, so it can't be any more random than that. Doesn't sound random to me, but there's nothing that can be done to make it "more random" in that case. That's primarily why I'm adding tracks - to dilute the pool and get a more random mix. Still, there are some albums I've ripped that Random Mix has never selected and I listen to Random Mix for 1-2 hours a day. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25759 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
