I've just had an issue in MM4 when trying to randomise a large playlist.

Can you give me any indication of the size that is causing you a problem?

Guys, i need a little help. I need a script that randomize a playlist or library by genre , but i need something that i can define how many tracks per genre will plya consecutive before it change genre... Sorry my english sucks.

For example:
1000 Metal songs
200 pop songs
50 dance songs...

I need a script to create on-the-fly a playlist with 10 metal , then 5 pop songs and 2 dance for example... and maybe randomize the next "circle" with 5 pops, 10 metal and 2 dance or other order ... c?

In current version of MM the DoChildren sub locks up MM on startup. Commenting out the call in RegisterAutoEvents fixes the script for me.

You should use auto playlists make them for genere you want, and number of sons you want then use pekes windows scheduler script to tell task scheduler to play scripts by way of running the script of pekes, his script allows you to add multiple lists in to it, for it to play, so it will finish one list the go to next list, and should repeat all day, you dont need to have scheduler start peke's script you can double click it to run it,

I suggest making your autolist pick songs that havent played in so many days and only pick the number or time lenght you want,
that will achive what you ask.
