It may just be my settings so I want to know if there is something I can do on my end as a user. It really seems as though the shuffle only goes through about 5-6 artists when I have hundreds in my library. I have tired all of the different settings under now playing and nothing seems to change this issue. Is there something I need to click on to get MB to actually do a random shuffle? I love my library but I am sick of the same artists over and over.

Using latest MB 3.0 from Mar 6, 2016.

Hmm.  Have you tried using Auto DJ?  You can fine tune the shuffle a little more there, such as putting a limit of how often a single artist can repeat.

Well, I thought I would test it for a couple of days and try all the auto DJ settings. So it did deal with the artists repeating once I changed it to not use one until 500. Now, I'm getting the same songs when I stop and start.

What is the maximum number of songs you can auto DJ?

Currently trying it with sorting by album instead of track, not really having much luck with that either.
