Its possible to play my songs randomly? Not only from one album...from all my entire collection. I use a WD Live to play my songs. It works like a charm with Twonky, but I cant find this option...Thanks.

Hi,
If you highlight ALL songs then press play then choose the random shuffle option on the WDTV it should be close to what you want. Unfortunatley the first song played will allways be the first in you collection but you can easilly skip this song. This method can be used on the GENRE selection as well which is the way I use it.

Alternativly you could create a playlist containing all your music and get Twonky to randomise that when you play it. I'm not sure if this option is still avilable in later versions of Twonky as I still use 4.0.18.
