music , Album/ Artist playlist random?

I don't know if the request has been made, or if it might already be there, but I can't find it.

Is it possible, if I am going to listen to an album or an artist, and I add, for example, three Albums, or artist more to the queue, that this queue can also be played as random?

I do know that I can save this queue as a playlist and then choose after which I can random play. but that's a bit cumbersome.

would like to hear

???? @Lukereally? The option to "Randomize the playback queue " is pretty standard functionality. I always assumed you could in Emby.

The standard convention, in most good players is shown below (highlighted in red) This happens to be Apple Music,

my Emby client is shown below

An open source basic music/ audio server..

The use case described is mainstream - add a couple of whatever to the queue and play in random order.

Feature Request or something else ?

I think it is already a known Feature Request in a few other older topics (although stated slightly differently).

The below Feature Request from Oct, 2022 suggests putting the shuffle icon next to the loop/repeat icon at the top of the play queue. That may also be a good option? If you scroll down to Luke's second reply, he mentions that it's possible for the future.

https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/112935-emby-music-ideas/

Here are some other similar suggestions going back to 2019:

https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/80252-music-request-shuffle-toggle-on-now-playing/

https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/76011-music-queue-list-improvements/&/topic/76011-music-queue-list-improvements/?hl=%2Bshuffle%2B%2Bmusic

Hopefully Emby will implement it, in one form or another, when they get a chance?

Apologies.  It does look like it got removed at some point in that interface.

It is definitely there in Roku.

HI, have you tried clicking shuffle prior to playback? We have shuffle buttons all over the user interface.

Hi Luke, there are indeed many shufle options, by Genre or artists. But I think it is missed that you cannot put a number of albums or artists in the waiting list and play them randomly, they then only play by album. I see that it is happening with Jelly, so I'll just use it for now. The big point is that it is free.....

Shuffle in the player coming very soon:

Look for it in the 4.9 beta channel in the coming days.

Hi Luke, I saw the 4.9 beta, i have installed it, and indeed on the window emby there is the possibility for random on the playlist 😀.

Am I correct that is not yet on the android and android TV?  I see there is only the possibility for  repeat mode ?
