Playlist Stops Shuffling

Krakenite,

Create a Smart Playlist with rules as follows:

Match All

Playlist is <the playlist you are talking about>

Last Played is not in the last 8 days

This will cause a song to be removed from the list as soon as it finishes playing, and not come back until 8 days later. (Choose a number different from 8 if you wish.)

Krakenite, Yes, the "on my computer" relates to the location of the audio file, and does not relate to where the "Last Played" took place.

Sounds like you are on the right track, but here is perhaps a better construct to use for your Smart Playlist:

Playlist is <the playlist you are talking about>

Limit To 100 items selected by Least Recently Played

Live Updating

That way you will always have 100 songs in the playlist no matter how much or little you have been listening lately.

How does it count "Days" here? Is it calendar days, or days of actual play?

If you play music 24/7, those two will be the same, lol.

But seriously, it is calendar days, based on the "Last Played" date. Whether it counts a day precisely as 24 hr, 0 min, 0 sec, or uses something a bit looser, I am not sure. Anyway, did setting to 2 days solve it?

Instead of 8 days, use 2 days.

Krakenite, Try 2 days. It has to be less than the time in which you go through the entire list (or else you will end up empty).
