(This post was last modified: 04-27-2019, 01:24 AM by JST1963.)
Version: Moode 5.1 (I think the problem doesn't exist on moOde 5.0 beacuse I don't think I have it at the office. I will check tomorrow)
AutoShuffle is ON, Random is ON
Problem:
if Library is on NAS: Autoshuffle shows me two songs after a while in the playlist (time depends on n° of songs in library)
if Library is on USB drive: AutoShuffle doesn't work.
Can you check this?
Thx,
Joahn

I usually have a library on my Synology NAS. Now I was testing some stuff and I put some albums on an external USB drive (SSD), and came by accident to the conclusion that my music didn't start after clicking the random button (Autoshuffle was already on in config).
So, disconnected the SSD, mounted the NAS again, and clicked the Random button. After about 30 seconds, 2 songs popped up in the playlist., playing the 1st one.
Then, I unmounted the NAS again, connected my SSD again, updated the MPD database, clicked the Randowm button.... nothing happened, not even after 3 minutes....

One of my test Pi's has just a USB stick containing music files and I'm not able to repro this. Auto-shuffle works fine.
Maybe try examining mpd log or run moodeutl -m to see if there is pegged cpu or full ram

I’m not an auto-shuffler but iirc there were issues with the newer version of mpd, maybe double check it’s using .20.20 instead of .21.6?
