Number of songs queued by "random" and "artist radio"

Hi Hakko,

Thanks again for the ongoing work, it is always appreciated.

I generally use MC by starting with an artist discography and then using the "play artist radio" or "play random" links. However, these seem to only queue up a relatively small number of songs. Especially if you delete a few you don't like from the suggested list. My question is, is it possible to increase the number of songs added by these features, or (even better, but harder) have a dynamically updating list?

Thanks - eq

Settings -> MusicCabinet

number of random tracks seems hard coded though (can be changed in artist.jsp)

Subsonic is not really built to do dynamic updating playlists so not within the current framework, I'd say.

Settings -> MusicCabinet is noted, sorry.

Would it be possible to add similar preferences for the number of random tracks? The hard-coded value seems to be 10, which is not much. Maybe even a higher constant would be a useful improvement. For me, at least, but I don't see that anyone would object to a longer "random".

Thanks

It makes perfect sense to have a setting instead of the hard-coded value 10.

There's now a setting for number of random songs in Settings -> MusicCabinet. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9777&p=54573#p54573
