I used to use Winamp - but it used too much grunt on the old Win98 PC.
So now I like DB.
I have sorted out playlists, I know how to create a playlist, or a series of them etc. No drama.
What I want to do is an old Winamp trick (sorry, it's just familiar). I want to be able to randomise the play order of the playlist.
If "random" is on, surely the tracks should not go from 1 to 20, instead going 4, 6, 18, 1, 15, 17 etc.
I would like to simply have the player pick the next track at random from any of the 1400 MP3s on the available drive. I'm hoping it's simple as I need to run this on my mother in law's PC, and she desn't like clicking lots of buttons. :(
Any suggestions or just real basic 101 on how to shuffle the order, greatly appreciated.
Thanks - all the way from New Zealand.
