    Winamp album randomizer

    I want an album randomizer for winamp... do they exist?


    When you select all your albums and mp3 files.... and select random on winamp it selects a random track....when that track finishes... it seeks again and picks a another random track.

    i want to be able to select random... so it selects a random album/folder and continues playing all the songs from that 1 album/folder. Once that album is finished playing... randomly select another album/folder.

    Does anything like this exist? I hope that makes sense

    Why not select the folder above all the album? Then it'll play all the songs in that folder and all subfolders.

    e.g. My Music\mp3s\Albums\ - then in this directory you have all the albums you want to play..

    Unless I've totally misread ur post? :/

    You've missed the point.



    All my albums are on my F: drive.

    Each album has its own folder.

    So i want winamp to randomly select an album... play all the songs in sequence... and then go back and randomly select another album... and play all the songs within that album.

    If I knew anything about winamp plugins I'd write it myself - it would be relatively easy to randomise based on file location.

    Sadly, I'm no winamp plugin writer.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
