            Bug ID: 441879
           Summary: Select random album to play
           Product: Elisa
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: matthieu_gall...@yahoo.fr
          Reporter: radoslaw.ju...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Add a play mode where a random album is selected, then all the tracks of that
album are played sequentially in order. After the last track, another random
album is selected, and it continues.

This is how I mainly use music players, so for someone like me it is the main
functionality missing in Elisa.

In cmus, there is a shuffle toggle that has two modes, shuffle by track or by
album. In Lollypop, instead, there is a specific random album mode which
shuffles all the albums and effectively makes a temporary corresponding
playlist.

In my humble opinion, here is how it could be nicely integrated in Elisa: In
the albums page, there is a "sort" drop-down menu. Currently it can sort by
title, artist, genre and year. A "random" sort option could be added there.
Then, after they are randomly sorted, clicking on the "enqueue" button would
enqueue the albums in that randomly sorted order.
