Shuffle is not random (enough)

I have several playlists in iTunes 12.4 (OS X 10.11.6) but will shuffle works is impossible. For example, a smart playlist that I put in place a more 1 400 titles spread over 124 albums but when I shuffle I get large blocks of single album titles are lined up to play. This happens every time. Take a look at these screenshots for a range of mix, that I made and you'll see what I mean.

It is not limited to smart playlists - it happens also with playlists standard and bought - and seems breeding only its ugly head over the next 3 to 6 months.

Any ideas?

Hello

While I don't use shuffle play much, I had no such problems. Have you checked your settings shuffle

It occupies of songs or albums?

  • Shuffle does not work

    I'm having a problem with the shuffle feature. What I want to do is to play all the songs in my music library in random order, so I went into settings > music Options and turned ON Shuffle. Then I click on music > Shuffle and a song randomly starts to play. But after that, he plays just songs in alphabetical order.

    When a song is played, I can press the Menu button, which shows me that the Shuffle is ON. If I shuffle off and back on, then the Shuffle icon appears at the top of the screen. When I press Next, a song randomly starts to play, which is exactly what I want. After that? Back to alphabetical, and the Shuffle icon disappeared. Check the settings, and Yes, the Shuffle is still on. Except that this isn't the case.

    I spend a lot of time driving to my work and I love the changing and unpredictable music. The ability to shuffle 4 GB of songs is the main reason why I bought a MP3 player that is dedicated in the first place. Can anyone offer some suggestions as to why the Shuffle does not work?

    It seems that your drive has firmware 1.25 (do you have updated recently?), which has now been cancelled due shuffle does not.

    Downgrade firmware 1.22 , the problem will be solved.

  • iTunes will not random on my iPhone6S after updating IOS

    My iTunes will not BE NOT random at all after I did this 10.0.2 software update!  I mean, if I hit random play on one of my playlists, does not choose a song randomly on the reading list and literally play it over and over and over again.  Basically, it does the OPPOSITE of brewing.  It is a major problem and my phone and my iTunes worked very well before this update! Suggestions?   Please?   Or, is the way to Apple, this to trick me into buying a whole new phone?

    Hello Vesper40,

    I understand that, despite trying to mix a playlist, your iPhone is just to play one song of this playlist repeatedly. In such a situation, you may need to disable the screen playing snooze in the music app.

    Control playback. Tap a song to play and show the MiniPlayer. Tap the MiniPlayer to display the now playing screen, where you can do the following:

    Repeat steps. Glisser slide upward, then press on to repeat an album or a playlist. Double click to repeat one piece.

  • With the new update my screen is not wide enough for the format. How can I change this?

    After the new update, the display shows only 3/4 of what is presented. I reduced the size of the print and that did not help. For example, typing this, once I had as "present" the due screen move to the left to allow me to see what I was typing. It does this automatically. I don't know what caused it in the latest edition of the update, but he made me a certain number of problems by acting on the Bank of line because no moveable windows do not show enough to allow me to hit the submit button.

    I want to see the whole window when I log onto a site. When I open now Yahoo News, for example, I don't see the last of three inches. I can see them if I hover over the page, but until now, I always saw the entire page when it comes to the top without having to take any action on my part.

    Where can I or how can I do to get it to how she still worked before?

    I opened the learning system and it refers to a tool of Mozilla bar which I did not either. Don't know if it of relevant or not.

    Hello

    Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution. There are several ways to solve this problem. See the Web pages are broad and fuzzy after update of Firefox - how to fix article for a suggestion. Here is another possible solution:

    • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
    • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
    • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

    • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

    If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

    If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

    To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

  • "Clips do not have enough media for the transition?

    I have two clips between which I want to insert a cross fade.  The first clip is 19 seconds long, the second is 16 seconds.

    When I try to put in the transition (I did two seconds of time), I get a message saying "Clips do not have enough media for the transition."  He will accept no transition more than 0.1 seconds.

    It makes no sense to me.  There are a lot of media for the transition time.  Can someone find out who's the problem and a possible solution?  Thank you.

    If it's important, the first clip is a mp4 video, and the second is a jpg photo.

  • EliteDesk 800 G1 USDT: usb ports do not provide enough power

    We have a scanner usb requiring 500mA of power.  However, for many of our clients using HPs, the usb ports do not provide enough power to the scanner causing the application to crash.  Some customers use the HP EliteDesk 800 G1 USDT, others use HP zero client t310.  Connect the scanner to a usb hub powered solves the problem every time.

    Y at - it changes, they can do for the Bus USB controllers to ensure that a particular port will be able to provide 500mA so they did not need to buy a usb powered a system hub?  Or do you have another suggestion?

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not familiar witht eh models accurate but 500MA is the output for USB 2.0 max but 3.0 can go higher have you tried usingn 3.0 ports if not you can also get a cable Hat uses the power of 2 ports.  Many systems have problems with the only Scanners USB and power supply.

  • When it is connected to the television sound is not good enough

    Hi all

    I bought a Satellite and try to connect to the TV by before taking. The sound is not good enough.
    Who can get better?

    What do you mean not enough? The volume is too low or what?

  • Satellite M70-192: its not strong enough

    Hey!

    I have a little problem with my sound on Satellite M70 - 192 PM760, when I plug the cable jack instead of phones, and second shot (on the same cable) to the hi-fi unit the sound is not loud enough. The sound is 2 times more silent, then it should be.

    My card its Realtek AC97 Audio v. 5.5 on my previous laptop, everything was ok and the sound is loud enough, so I conclude that something that something is wrong with the software or the sound card have some limitations. I have already downloaded all the latest drivers.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    We're all ok. It is not a malfunction of the sound card or driver. I am sure that this problem occurs due to the settings in the "sound and audio devices" 99.9 percent.
    This option you will find in the control panel.
    Open sound and audio devices option and press the Advanced button.
    You will find many controllers. You should check the controllers and replace it with the higher position.

    Good bye

  • LabWindows CVI RS-232 is not fast enough

    Hello

    Is it possible to write a C program which takes RS-232 data buffers and prints it on the screen?

    I ask this question because I write a program in LabWindows CVI and the data is not correct. I used SimpleTerm Gold to see what data are supposed to look like, but CVI misses some. I believe it is not fast enough and therefore lack of data.

    A C program (do not use the functions or reminders CVI) would be possible and better?

    Is it possible to make the CVI to work faster? I changed the environmental policy of the previous "do not sleep". There are two ComRdTerm because we're not getting all the other packages.

    Rate 115200 baud, no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit. Most of the data I receive are 313 bytes and the smallest is 17.

    Any help would be MUCH appreciated as I am completely puzzled.
    Thank you

    Code is below.

    OpenComConfig (com, "COM9", 115 200 Baud, 8, 1, 0, 1024, 1024); / /< opens="" serial="" ports="">
    SetComTime (com, 0); / /< sets="" serial="" port="" to="" never="" time="" out="">
    T0 = clock(); / /< calculate="" how="" fast="" comrdterm="" is="">
    bytes_read0 = ComRdTerm (com, & buffer0 [0], 314, 10); / / read com and store it in the buffer
    sprintf (p_check0,"%.4s" & buffer0 [0]);
    T0 = clock() - t0;
    Double time_taken0 = ((double) t0) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC; / / in seconds
    printf("%d\t%f\t%s\n",bytes_read0,time_taken0,&buffer0[0]);
    Memset (buffer0, 0, strlen (buffer0)); / / Clears the buffer

    T1 = clock();
    bytes_read1 = ComRdTerm (com, & buf1 [0], 314, 10);
    sprintf (p_check1,"%.4s" & buffer1 [0]);
    T1 = clock() - t1;
    Double time_taken1 = ((double) t1) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
    printf("%d\t%f\t%s\n",bytes_read1,time_taken1,&Buffer1[0]);
    Memset (buf1, 0, strlen (buffer1));

    Thanks for all the help guys. I finally found the solution. The program was running too slow because I kept opening and configure ports (not shown in the code) I simply kept open ports and it works fine.

    I appreciate all the comments and insight. Each of them will definitely help me still to develop with CVI.

    Kind regards

  • IMAQ Vision: The image is not big enough for the operation (Imaq WriteToPNG.vi)

    Hi all

    I was stuck for a few days trying to get my work VI and get this error. It is as simple as to save a graph of intensity as an IMG, he works with JPEG formats but my graph is U16 grayscale and it is not supported by the jpeg format so I didn't get the expected results. Then I went to the PNG format and the error "the image is not big enough for that operation" appeared. I tried to resize as aid error NOR suggest, and got the same error, anyone has an idea on what could be the problem?

    Hello Bob,

    Thanks for the tips, I'll post my code in future issues (since I already solved this one). As you say, there was something wrong with my code, the code in the image actually worked well, but doesn't have the part where I wrote to the variable (the variable was not being written if its value is an array of 0x0, not big enough actually). Thank you!
