Here's what I learned this morning, when my 6:00 AM alarm triggered a new "Random songs", replacing the "Random songs" that had been playing through the night.
The overnight rescan created a small addition to the library. It was one compilation album that contained four genres. The alarm-triggered "Random songs" only played this one new addition to the library. Upon investigation, I found that in My Music>Random mix, only the genres contained in the compilation were checked. Scrolling to the bottom of the genre list and clicking "Select All", then selecting "Select None", then starting a new "Random songs" playlist fixes the problem. This, to me confirms that having no genres checked allows "Random Mix" to use all genres. The null set is not the same as checking a blank check box or the "No genre" check box. I can use this information to manually correct the problem after each instance of new music being added to the library during a rescan. It would be better to find a way for brand new genres (yes, there are now 3,983 genres) not to be automatically checked on the list. That would eliminate the issue entirely. Is there a setting that I'm not finding that I can change so that new genres aren't checked on the "Random Mix" list? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jstraw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17008 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111435 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
