Stopping shuffle when listening to Audiobooks!

Post by ConcernedWife »

I am on v1.3.3.0842 (the latest), and cannot figure out how to disable shuffle when listening to Audiobooks!
I'm surprised it is even possible..

When hold the shuffle button, I get a Toast notification of 'Shuffle All' - it never toggles the mode.
When I press the shuffle button - it starts playing.

How can I disable (forever!) swhuffle in Audiobook mode?

Thanks

It sounds like you're using Random Play when browsing the files. Instead long press the files, select what you want played and use one of the Play options at the bottom of the screen (like Play Now).

On the Player screen tap on the Artwork to reveal the Shuffle/Repeat buttons and this will allow you to disable Shuffle. This works independently from the Random Play button.

After *much* frustration - I think I've figured it out, thankyou..

It seems that the interface behaves completely differently depending on the orientation. The UI is absolutely confusing for me on Android. I've been using mm for over 8 years on Windows, but am totally confused with the Android version.
The 'disabled' colours are different on different icons on the same screen! Absolutely confusing...
And I would never think to tap Artwork.. Why would I?

Thanks for your help..!
