Reworks to the shuffle system to improve performance and allow fast shuffling from a big library (but this work for all database views)
This improvement brings a huge performance improvement to start a random mix of your library. Previously, the only way to do this was to increase the size of a playlist with absurd sizes number. Now it will respect the limitation but will insert random songs from the current view. Database: Add true random songs in playlist if it is gonna exceed its maximum capacity More context is available here : https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/1ez0mq4/i_developped_true_full_library_shuffle_for/ Also : - Improved layout in the DB browser - New default max playlists capacity is now 2000 on old PortalPlayer targets to give a better user experience and not having to wait dozens of seconds while creating a playlist - "Show insert shuffled" option is now true by default - Add a new shortcut to play all songs shuffled in the DB browser - Now the feature is fully optional and enabled only on targets that have more than 2MB of RAM - Add entries about this feature in the manual to explain it to the users Change-Id: I1aebaf7ebcff2bf907080f1861027d530619097c Change-Id: I3354923b148eeef1975171990e814a1a505d1df0

If your total amount of music tracks exceeds the value of the
|

\setting{Max Playlist Size} setting (\setting{Settings $\rightarrow$ General
|

Settings $\rightarrow$ System $\rightarrow$ Limits}), using the database
|

will be your only way to shuffle between all songs from your music library.
|

Any view on the database browser that exceeds the maximum value of this option
|
||||
will be automatically adjusted and randomized to fit into the available space
|

when you will create a dynamic playlist from the view.
|

Using the database browser is recommended if you shuffle regularly between a lot of
|

songs rather than increasing your limit, so you will get the best possible performance

on this action.
