Hi everyone

Ever since I upgraded the software recently the music media player hasn't functioned as well as before.
Before I always listened to my music on 'random' function which worked perfectly. it would truly select any select any song from random from the almost 8GB on memory on my USB stick.
Now the random function doesn't work. If I choose to skip to the next track it stays within the same folder and usually the same album.
Has anyone else experienced this or is able to suggest a possible solution?

Many thanks

Richard
 
I know i mite be stating the obvisous here but have you checked that the random play function is switched on?

Any suggestions appreciated mate! I didn't have to switch the random function on before but maybe I do now with the new software? Can you tell me how to do it please?
 
Its not that, random selects a random track. Which then goes in alphabetical/numerical order.

you need to go into
media player
setting
shuffle
shuffle on.

this will then play random tracks throughout the use of the media player, sometimes it loses this and needs the shuffle turning back on.

Thanks a lot, this was indeed the problem, random play had turned itself off so many thanks for that great tip. However now I have another problem which has developed. The media player only recognises five artist folders, so when I hit next song it just moves onto one from within this group of five. Interestingly this group of five are next to each other on the memory stick about 3/4 down the list. It is a Kingston 8 GB stick.
Any suggestions on this latest issue? All advice greatly appreciated.
 
I've heard of many similar problems on here about the Media Player not recgonising artists/albums/tracks etc Are you sure that all the tags have been entered correctly before loading the songs onto your memory stick - Artist Name / Album Name / Track Title ? If that doesn't fix it i have also read that many people experience problems with larger memory sticks - i always use 2GB sticks and have had very few related problems

Hope that helps
