starting a playlist when shuffle is ennabled

Dj-[NRG] · 01-17-2007, 02:43 PM

hi,

don't know it's a bug or not, but when i'm playing songs, and shuffle is ennabled, and then want to start another playlist, i click a song and click play, CF loads the playlist, but does not play the song i clicked, but plays a random song from that playlist...
is this how it's supposed to be?
i would like it much more that when i click on song 5, and then play, song 5 starts to play instead of song 27

This is a side affect I didn't think of... Basically it was requested by many that if you are in random mode when you start playling a playlist or album the first song should be random...

I will have to think about this or take this feature out...

What does everyone think that wanted the random to function like this?

perhaps if you start a playlist using the play button on a certain track (as opposed the the album or artist), you can have it start on that track and then the nexy track will be randomized.. but if the play button is hit on an entire album, artist, or genre, let the first track be random.

I will check it out, that shouldn't be a problem...

I like the idea of playing the song you select even when in shuffle. It would make sense to play that song then start shuffling.
