M - Configure - Audio - Auto-Shuffle on
Play Music (1 Track in Playlist)
Hit the random button
When the last song in the Playlist has finished playing, Auto-shuffle adds two randomly selected songs from the music library to the end of the Playlist then repeats the process. This creates a continuous stream of music without growing the Playlist and having two tracks enables MPD Crossfade to be used. NOTE: Auto-shuffle replaces MPD random play as the method for the 'Random' button.
I played with this this weekend and it wouldn't work. I created a playlist with one song, and after that song no further music would play with the autoshuffle turned on. Not sure if it's a bug or if I have it configured wrong, or it won't work with music stored on a server. Perhaps it only works with locally stored music. Not sure, but it's kind of a bummer to not be able to turn on auto shuffle with a whole library without it bogging the system completely down.
