With the new shuffle behaviour their are cases where the shuffle state of the player is misleading. As an example;
- Start with player shuffle enabled.
- Select playlist and Play now.
In this case the playlist plays in a non-shuffled state as requested but the player shuffle state remains true. This means that if the user wants to shuffle the playlist at this point they need to press the shuffle button twice. The first press giving the warning '...unable to unshuffle due to edits...' and the second performing the shuffle.
I'd prefer that in the case that the playlist is edited in a way that does not allow unshuffling that the shuffle state is set to false. This would make the shuffle button more responsive. If required the warning could be given when the playlist is modified.
With this the shuffle states would instead be;
- true - now playing has been shuffled and it is possible to unshuffle
- false - now playing has not been shuffled or can not be unshuffled
As an extension to this when playing a playlist shuffled, specifically when the now playing list is cleared, the tracks could be added to the now playing list in order and then the shuffle state set. This would make is possible to unshuffle the playlist with the shuffle button.
