Is there a way to play a random playlist of the entire music collection using the standard Music library screen?

I thought if you have a top folder with all sub folders holding music you just press play on that folder

Yep - Ctrl-P on a folder creates a random playlist of all the music in and blow that folder...

You can configure play to play in track order in config.xml though which causes this method to fail. I don't remember what the shuffle key on the hidden menu does, I thought it was a random function but I tried and it didn't do anything.

I only have one music folder. Does that mean I need to add a 2nd folder so I can select the Music folder from the "top folder"?

yes that is the issue with it I just remembered you have to have a Dummy folder (minimum of 2 folders in set up)
Npvr is to smart and takes yiou straight into the sub folder otherwise

Or you could add a couple of plugins & have something that is really user friendly & easy to use, not to mentiong a lot of fun if you enable FanArt

From another post....... (your default MB4 collection is selectable through the MB4 settings)

MB4-SSPlus one button Jukebox

First off this feature has to be my most used feature with NextPVR....

For those of you that don't know about it: If you are running SSPlus screensaver & MusicBox4 when the screensaver is displaying you can press the Red button (Alt+R) & it will start playing a random playlist of your default MB4 collection..... if you have visitors staying over it is so easy to explain, they pick it up in seconds.
