Okay :) I've reade that wish about supporting shuffle in amarok. Actually - 'shuffle' is an ipod, and gnupod works with it quite well. But. Why i love it : thats all a magik button in itunes - 'autofill' :) - it makes shuffle really shuffle. I dont have to waste time selecting music, 5 mins and i've got 512 mb of music, selected according to my ratings etc... There's party mode in amarok. It's superb. Better than in itunes :) you've beaten Mac :) But. Why not make a button, which just limits volume of all tracks given by party mode to specified one (Say 512, or 1024Mb... actually it'd be better to use ALL the space available, ie last songs shall be selected specially %)), and copies resulting playlist to ipod? I'm trying to use MySQL with gnupod and amarok to make something like that - but that's a dirty hack - and integration with amarok... I'm not good enough for such a task... PLEASE take care of my wish, dear Santa :) (Actually i know several people, who uses autofill on a big ipods - so - that's not such a shuffle wish :)
My best wishes, Victor.

You'd use a smart playlist for that. See bug #92630
