Subsonic Forum

Hi there, I am not new to subsonic, been using it for over a year now, but I just today decided to shuffle my whole music library. I must be completely stupid but I cannot find a way to list all of my songs, add them to a playlist, and shuffle.

Or even just a simple shuffle all button. I think the old version of the android app had a shuffle option, but I just checked on the new app, and don't see it. How can I add all songs to a playlist, or shuffle all?


May I also take this moment to say that I was seriously annoyed that after buying ("donating") for the desktop server, and having been using subsonic on android for no added charge, to find that I now had to pay a 2nd time to not have my screen cluttered with ads... very lame. In any case, subsonic is still the best option. Please help me find shuffle

EDIT: to be clear I am trying to find "shuffle all" on the web interface, and ALSO on the new android app.

Doesn't exist. On the More tab, you can generate a random playlist of x songs but that's it.

[edit] : Don't use the official android app anymore (dsub is way better) but on the Home tab, there's a shuffle button that does what you want.

What´s the limit of song subsonic can handle? all i can find is 100 000+ not the MAX the program can handle.

Happy if anyone could answer this question.
Thinking about using and sponsoring subsonic if it can handle 500000+ at least.

This is something that was frustrating me as well, but I think I have a work-around. I currently use MusicCabinet, which allows you to create a random playlist based on tags. Simply highlight every tag in your library and ask it to create a playlist, and you've basically shuffled all of your tracks. It's not as simple a solution as I'd like, but it seems to work.

Also, try uninstalling the Android app and using this one instead: http://forum.subsonic.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=11303

Again, I don't use the official app, but I can navigate to the parent folder and shuffle every track using this app. I'm about to try dSub as well, so I'm not sure if that supports the same feature.
