Shuffle mode is a processor-intensive and terribly computationally inefficient way to randomize songs, especially compared to Random Mix or any of the more sophisticated plugins like Dynamic Playlists, MusicIP, or Spicefly Sugarcube. And throwing thousands of tracks at it to shuffle is downright torture.
If you're worried about an audio book track showing up in your Random Mix, simply give your audio books a suitable and don't include that genre in your list of eligible genres for Random Mix. You just need to take a minute or two to configure it properly. The Dynamic Playlists plugin gives you finer control over genres to include/exclude. MusicIP is downright brilliant at building playlists based on the musical attributes of the "seed" songs you give it -- it's like Pandora for your own library. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77050 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
