Title: shuffle by album
Post by: daven on June 13, 2004, 08:03:06 pm

is it possible to shuffle by album?  for example if i want to listen to all my jazz albums in random order, can i double click on the jazz genre, keeping the albums intact, but shuffling their order?

thanks- i guess i should have scrolled down the forum before posting  :P

it would be nice though if you were able to toggle to this mode of shuffle like other players allow.

how do i use the ~ toggle?

ok, i got the following smart playlist setup and it seems to work:

[media type]=[audio] [Track #]==1 ~sort=[random]

i think i recall in an older version, it was possible to filter whatever was playing with a smartlist.  so this would allow me to send all my jazz music to playing now and then use the above filter to sort.  this would prevent me from having to create a playlist for every genre.  is this still possible?
