Not to my knowledge, at least not on gen 1 and 2 ipods. I can't speak speak for gen 3. The Shuffle mode is a global setting that effects all songs played. When you play your entire collection the iPod is looking at that as one long playlist. When you make your own playlists it does the same. I find that a bit annoying too, especially if I want to play my entire collection, but skip the iTrip files. Too bad they didn't put the "Shuffle/continuous" setting on a slide bar on the outside for "On-the-fly" adjustment. Maybe others have found away to do this, but as far as I know, one setting fits all. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeffrey Kaplan Sent: Saturday, December 13, 2003 9:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ephpod] Randomized play order vs playlists Normally, I don't use playlists because I prefer to have my entire collection on random play. But I just created (and synched) a couple playlists for a couple albums. These are story/concept albums where the play order is important. Because I normally listen in random order, the playback order of these playlists got scrambled. Is there a relatively simple method other than disabling Random Play completely to have my iPod play playlists in order, but when not using a playlist to randomize? -- Jeffrey Kaplan <*> www.gordol.org The from userid is killfiled <*> Send personal mail to gordol "I don't mean to alarm you, but your pants are talking to you."
