Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I have created a new Library View
and will play around with this for now. Craig, I like the new
development as that will make life simpler!

For the next release of Material I've added 'Random Albums' as a choice
when listing a genre. e.g. when showing "My Music > Genres > Classical"
you will be presented with a choice of Artists, Albums, Random Albums,
Composers, or Conductors.

No plugin needed.

How to save an "Advanced" search" as a library view explained '*here*'
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?111797-separate-libraries=968966=1#post968966).
Change* step 1* to use you own criteria for the search.* Step 4* seems
to be the critical one that most people fall down on.

That would work, thanks. I am running LMS 8.0.0. I tried an advanced
search but couldn't see how to save as a Library View. I don't need 
plugin to do this do I?

You could make "Library Views" for the genre(s) you wish to pick from a
random album list. Tell LMS to use say "Country music" library, and
"Random Albums" will only show albums from that library.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Random Albums

2020-03-26 Thread Shozzer


Hi, I am enjoying using the Random Album library view which enables me
to see albums I have not listened to in a while. Is it possible to
refine the choice by genre or does it just work with the entire
library?

Thanks.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Random Albums

2018-11-09 Thread Michael Herger

Just wondering how random the "Random Albums" feature is. I have seven
albums by "I Am Kloot" and three of them appeared in my Random Albums
list with two of them being the first two in the list.


As long as we've had "random whatever" around, people have considered it 
not random enough... though all these features are using different 
implementations of randomization: some use Perl's, some the database's 
random function. Randomness is difficult - to implement as well as 
understand.
