You can do this with the Random Mix, which is controlled by genre. You tick off which genres you want to include in the mix. > Can you tell it to play all the music within a particular folder?

But you'll have the same limit of no more than 100 tracks that can be in the current playlist when using the built-in server. > -*Update:* I'm thinking perhaps I should download the 'Squeezebox > Server' > (http://www.logitechsqueezebox.com/support/download-squeezebox-server.html) > and 'Softsqueeze' (http://softsqueeze.sourceforge.net/) to sort-of try > before I buy.

That's often recommended for anyone considering buying a Squeezebox or for those who have one on the way. What you also might do is put hopes of using the built-in server out of your mind. It has numerous limitations and, before you've even touched a Squeezebox, you've already run into one that doesn't fit how you like to listen to your music. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77156 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
