Improved Music Shuffle Suggestion

[coffeedrinker44]

The shuffle feature seems to literally shuffle all of the music randomly which can lead to repeats of the same song, even multiple times in a row, without going through the whole playlist. It would be nice if the shuffle would not repeat songs multiple times, at least within a certain # of songs (this could be some % of the playlist rather than a flat number of songs?). I believe a similar issue has been solved in iTunes as this Stack Overflow thread explains.

Although this wouldn't be too hard to fix in my opinion, it would greatly enhance my experience with the music player. 

Thanks.

In 1h drive one song was played 3 times, which is quite bad considering I have ~500 songs loaded up which can play for ~34h total.

For workaround, I disabled random file order and used script to add random number prefix to each songs file name, but that makes searching for one specific song very hard.

I always though script for random playback should generate random order playlist and then stick to it, instead of selecting random file to play after previous file is done.

We will have a look on this issue.

We did some improvements in scope of random playback. They will be available in the next release.
