It's even easier from the web interface, as you have all of the genres in front of you at once and you can easily see which ones are selected and change them. > But what are the other 4 choices on that page? For instance, does "album > mix" play all tracks of one album and then randomly select another album > from the selected genre list? Same for random artist and year? Yes. They're all subject to the selected genres, so if you select random years and have only 'jazz' checked in genres, you'll get a shuffled playlist of jazz tracks from some random year. > Is "random mix" easier on system resources or give better performance > that using "shuffle" on a genre with a thousand or more tracks? Yes, it's MUCH easier on system resources. The web interface is also a good place to get a feel for how it works. Anytime you play something you can immediately see the results in the playlist. -- JJZolx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88344 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
