Phil,
your reply didn't make it to the forums. The mailing list gateway still is
broken. You should probably re-post on forums.slimdevices.com.
I'm sorry for the hassle. I hate to go there myself as well :-/

Yes that sounds plausible. I'll just wait for the rand() fix and see if

Even if you select Dynamic Mix without an initial seed, it will try to use
MusicIP first to get a list of songs returned without a seed.

There isn't a sub-menu for all Dynamic Mix options. Each option should appear
