It would be great to have the same random mix functionality as the LMS GUI, so I would expect asking would take the form: "Play/stream -song/album/artist/year- random mix" This would randomly play/stream your entire library. "Play/stream -song/album/artist/year- random mix by -genre-". This would randomly play/stream only the specified genre for your entire library. Yeah, the "misfires" were probably me experimenting with how favourites are now handled per your No. 990 post and reorganizing my list (which includes folders) to conform to your "levels" approach. I was missing the point that there is a "zero" level, but once I got my head around that and with some reorganization of my favourites list, I was able to get the "dot" notation working predictably. However, there is one anomaly I have noted. My favourites list, as shown in the LMS GUI, starts with 2 folders, then a number of URL's with the final item in the list being another folder. I would have expected the 3 folders to be "0.1, 0.2 and 0.3", respectively, but in fact, the third folder at the end of the list shows up as No. 24 when Mediaserver is ask to list favourites. The contents of this folder can be access by using the dot notation (i.e. "24.x"), so no big problem, but I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on why a folder not at the beginning of the list shows up apparently randomly somewhere in Mediaserver different from it's location in the LMS GUI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ raglencross's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7239 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111016 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
