when automatic refresh is disabled, MB preserves the tracks and also the sorting. So you should be able to untick that option and going forward the tracks should always keep sequence when set that way

I made sure to update the patch, just in case, but every time I untick "automatically refresh", the track list randomizes again.

yes thats right and although not intuitive, the reason is because you might have changed other things in the auto-playlist definition while editing - it doesnt have any loigic in to figure that out. Once live refreshing is disabled, the list should stay the same from that point onwards

So it's impossible to have "keep tracks in order when shuffling" and NOT "automatically update tracks" at the same time?

Yes!  Now it's working!  And with the change you made for scrobbling, I should be able to get my classical tracks scrobbling correctly.  You're a saint!
