I don't know if the shuffle option you're talking bout is the one I'm interested in so I clarify what I need:
I'd call this button I'd like the [ShuffleThis] button (but that's only 'cause English is not my mother tongue so I can't think of a better name
...)
Scenario: The Playing Now playlist is somewhat populated and Shuffle is off
- I press the [ShuffleThis] button and ALL songs in the playlist get "physically" shuffled
- I then start playing the playlist (Shuffle is still off) and it will be played in this randomly created order (note: what you see as next song in the list will be actually played next)
- after X songs has been played, if I press the [ShuffleThis] button again, only the remaining not-yet played songs are "physically" shuffled and, given that Shuffle is still off, the remaining part of the playlist will be played in this new order
I've written all this, but, come to think of it, I have no idea: maybe MC is able already to "physically" shuffle lists, maybe always shuffling ALL songs (including the already played ones); does anyone know?
