Auto DJ doesn't seem to be following this setting.  I went through and marked a bunch of classical stuff with the setting, and now it seems to grab the first track of a set, but forget to add the rest of them.

I thought it might be related to my Auto DJ filter, which is Play Count is < 1.  Some of the sets got played out of order and so they have mismatched play counts.  But the current group was all 0 play counts (I added the missing tracks when the first one started).

it is only applied when shuffling by Track (ie. not shuffle by Album or shuffle by Grouping)
Assuming you are shuffling by Track then it only adds tracks from the list of files that meet the criteria and have not already been played.
So most likely your filter criteria is excluding some of the tracks

Here's an example:



It always loads the first track and only the first track (or at least the first one that matches the filter), regardless of whether any of the others in the set match the filter.  (In this case a couple don't, but I've also seen it happen where they all do.)

i cant reproduce any incorrect behavior or see how it would be wrong from the code. Assuming all the tracks meet the filter criteria then the other thing to try is selecting all the tracks in the album and in the tag editor re-applying the "keep tracks in sequence" setting

This is still happening, and I think I've figured out why.  I have "gap before the same artist can repeat" set to 10.  Shouldn't "keep tracks in sequence" override that?

Woot!  As soon as I turned Auto DJ on again, it pulled up a complete set.

I'm seeing this happen again.  Stopping and restarting Auto DJ seemed to fix it, though.  I'll provide more info if I can figure anything out.
