Description Ollie 2009-12-31 02:36:11 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

In Amarok 1.4, it was possible to shuffle a playlist, and then maintain that shuffled order (i.e. linear playback). This was a feature that I hadn't encountered in any other player before or since, and was, in my opinion, one of the (many) things that made Amarok great.

I appreciate being able to randomise lists, and like the nice feature of being able to add tracks to a randomised list and they be added randomly.

However, especially when dealing with odd tracks that I want to listen to straight away, it would be good to be able to add tracks in specific places to randomised lists.

Thank you very much for the hard work so far - it's really coming along nicely! :)
