I use Car Radio buttons throw up random playlists, albums, etc.  In the past pressing the button would completely refresh the playing now selection, but now I'm getting the same results every time, albeit randomly sorted.

If I go to the actual Car Radio smartlists in the Playlists tree I get new results each time I refresh, so the smartlists are fine, but something see awry with the buttons?

Has something changed recently?

A test, to show this in action:

[Media Type]=[Audio] ~sort=Random ~n=1

If you use this as a Car Radio smartlist you get the same track every time you hit the Car Radio button...

Working fine here.
However it's never worked for me via JRemote, I get the same issue - only randomizes on the first play.
I wonder if it also happens when you're using a client machine?

Went all the way back to .40 to see if there has been a change, but see the same thing, so it's not a new thing, if it's a thing at all.

I seem to recall something about Car Radio and smartlists being mentioned in the past... will do some searching.
