Comment (by ddavid123):
axeld "The shuffle mode is implemented by randomizing the playlist (in the
playlist window). Not sure it makes sense to have both."
This is true, you can shuffle the media played in the playlist, but the
user has to select each one manually! What I would like to see is a
shuffle feature that shuffles the media randomly, without any user input.
All the user would have to do is tell MediaPlayer which songs/videos to
play, then click "Shuffle" to randomize the playlist automatically.
Nobody wants to sit in front of a screen and manually click each file to
shuffle! Especially if they just want to relax and listen to their
favorate albums.
As far as the play URL is concerned, it is also important! It is
important especially if you (like me) are booting Haiku from a usb stick
and don't want to fill it with media. Perhaps it could be implemented as
an add-on?
Thanks for your consideration!
