I use the more balanced/slower option, with *all* genres *deselected*, good random mix, no problems at all. :confused: If I wish to hear a random mix of say "Country", I use a saved favourite for that genre. 37627 +---+ |Filename: countryfav.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=37627| +---+ *LMS server/study player - LMS 8.3.0 *Pi4B 4GB/NanoSound ONE case/pCP 8.1.0 - 75K library, playlists & LMS cache on Sata SSD (ntfs) *Lounge* - Pi2/pCP 8.1.0 > HiFiBerry DIGI+ > Topping E30 > AVI DM5 *Dining Room* - Echo Show 8 *Garage* - Squeezebox Touch > Edifier *Spares* - 1xSB Radio, 1xSB3, 4xRPi, 1xDAC32, 1xCORE32 kidstypike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116221 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

My shuffle method was already set to this ("Use more balanced, but
slower shuffle"), but it's not terribly balanced. Here's an example of a
random song mix that I just generated:
- Rolling Stones
- Beatles
- Beatles
- Beatles
- Beatles
- Beatles
- Rolling Stones
- Rolling Stones
- Bob Dylan
- Beatles
- Prince
There are 7,328 artists in my library of 97,334 tracks.
