Random subsample of playlist
#2
Auto-shuffle does support excluding things by tag or shuffling over a subset of files but I haven't experimented with any of these options. The dev gives examples of how to use the options in the Git repo. https://github.com/joshkunz/ashuffle

You could try turning it off in moOde UI and then running it from cmd line with something like --e genre classical

Code:
usage: ashuffle -h -n [-e PATTERN ...] [-o NUMBER] [-f FILENAME]

Optional Arguments:
  -e,--exclude  Specify things to remove from shuffle (think blacklist).
  -o,--only     Instead of continuously adding songs, just add 'NUMBER'
                songs and then exit.
  -h,-?,--help  Display this help message.
  -f,--file     Use MPD URI's found in 'file' instead of using the entire MPD
                library. You can supply `-` instead of a filename to retrive
                URI's from standard in. This can be used to pipe song URI's
                from another program into ashuffle.
  -n,--nocheck  When reading URIs from a file, don't check to ensure that
                the URIs match the given exclude rules. This option is most
                helpful when shuffling songs with -f, that aren't in the
                MPD library.
See included `readme.md` file for PATTERN syntax.
