I've got an iRiver h340, but it has some issues with the shuffle mode, especially in conjunction with resume.
Firstly, I have the latest firmware (v1.29 K) which is meant to fix the dodgy shuffle. It doesn't!!! The thing now chooses from a set of about four songs for the first in the shuffle list, and then goes from there. It also has its favourites, so some of my songs never get played. I currently have about 80 hours of music on there, so I should NOT be hearing four songs today which I heard yesterday.
I have resume on, so I stop the player at the end of one day and then the next day it starts up at the same part of the same song (and if I am in one in the same playlist). Problem is, I think it is resetting the shuffle, using the current song as the seed.
My question is: is there a way to fix this?
I would consider Rockbox, but I don't know how stable it is, and I have album art in the tags, which I think crashes Rockbox. Also, Rockbox uses more battery in a given time.
Any suggestions? I'm getting seriously bummed by the lack of variety.
