MM Only Playing the Same Songs While on "Shuffle"

Post by perdedor »

Hey guys,

So, I'm a new convert to MediaMonkey & I absolutely love it.

There's just one issue.

I have an album with 350 songs on it, and, MediaMonkey only plays a handful of them while on "shuffle".

I was checking out the forums here & a bunch of Google suggestions, but, have had no luck yet.

Just wondering if anyone might know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks for reading!

MediaMonkey 2024 has a very different Shuffle mechanism that would avoid this altogether.

Do you actually have all the files loaded to the Now Playing? Shuffle only picks randomly from what's in the Now Playing.

Hey Lowlander,

Thanks for writing.

I do have the tracks loaded to Now Playing.

I'll check out 2024 & see what happens.

Thanks a lot!
