Paul, your report made me do further tests. I still can't get it to behave the way I'm expecting.

When I do the following layout (with "R" indicating always randomize):

R...empeg-car
R..........Artist
....................Album
....................Album
R..........Artist
....................Album
....................Album
R..........Various/Mix

Then, if I have shuffle-play off on the Empeg, no matter what I do, if I select the root playlist or artist playlists, it plays the contents of the individual albums sequentially (although it randomly selects an album). If it happens to hit that Various/Mix playlist from the root level, then of course it randomizes that one. But my point is that the sequential albums don't get randomized.

Of course, If I turn on shuffle play, it shuffles the songs, but I thought the whole point of that checkbox was so that you didn't have to toggle shuffle play if you ran that playlist.
