It's easy enough to get MC to show images from my massive photo library, but it always starts with the first image and goes through them sequentially.  So while I have 2000 images, I only ever see the first 100.  Over and over....

I can't find a setting to randomize this, and I couldn't find it in the FAQ or on this message board.  Is it possible?

Thanks,
Fred

The shuffle button should work.  Playback of images is identical to playback of music.

if you want this regularly, you can create a Smartlist with the query
[Media Type]=[Image] ~sort=[Random]

I use one like this that plays all my photos with mellow music
[Media Type]=[Image] or ([Media Type]=[Audio] [Mood]=[Mellow]) ~sort=[Random]
where Mood is my own custom field.

On a related note, I'm trying to create a playlist that has all my photos in date order, and some music in random order. I've tried
([Media Type]=[Image] ~sort=[Date]) or ([Media Type]=[Audio] ~sort=[Random])
but that seems to sort the images in random order 2
