Title: Shuffle and playlist repeat
Post by: olorinh on July 13, 2018, 15:19:33

Hi,

Sorry my Russian is not great! I hope English is ok :)

I have a large "smart playlist" containing all of the local files in the media library. I have selected shuffle and repeat playlist, but I am confused about how it works.

In Winamp this functionality will shuffle and repeat all playlist items at random, and the same file can play multiple times before the entire playlist is repeated. Is this the same with AIMP, or is the playlist repeated as a whole?

AIMP plays entire playlist without any repeats in random order, after playlist is finished it will start playing again but with different shuffle queue

Hi Artem,

When the Media Library is updated, the Smart Playlist is refreshed. Does this mean the repeat and shuffle is reset?

No, shuffler's queue resets only on playlist end
