Solved: Auto-shuffle does not distinguish between different albums of same album title

I have discovered a minor (but sometimes annoying) issue with Auto-shuffle in Album mode: If two (or more) different albums share the same album title, e.g. "Greatest Hits" of different artists, the auto-shuffle feature currently does not distingush between them but would always add all of these albums at once.

The reason seems to be that the Album mode internally uses "ashuffle --group-by album" which just compares the album title tags rather than a (more distinct) combination of tags.

Possible fix: The ashuffle homepage suggests to use "ashuffle --by-album" for this purpose instead, where the "--by-album" option is a shortcut for "--group-by album date". This would still cause an issue if albums of the same title also share the same date tag, but would at least work in more/most cases.

Would it be possible to implement a fix for this issue?

Thanks & best regards
Jens

PS: I am running Moode 8.1.2

I may be wrong, but this is an MPD feature, not a moOde one.

I'd like to be corrected, though...
Cheers, Al.
