iTunes / Party Shuffle
Subtitles of the Movie
There are times when you have a group of people over and you just want some music to start playing and you just want some random music from your collection to play automatically and that is where party shuffle comes in handy. Party shuffle will choose music for you based on certain criteria. Normally when you choose party shuffle, a dialog box will appear saying that it's going to at random choose songs from your playlist. But you have control over the source or the playlist. So as you see, when I click party shuffle, I have some songs here and they are based on a source. In this case I have an album by Baby Face selected, but if I choose let's say Bob Marley, the list changes. So what I can do to control the songs that appear here is I can choose to have however many songs I like to display and I can also choose how many incoming songs to display and I can also have the party shuffle play higher-rated songs more often. So if there are songs I like quite a bit, they'll play more as the shuffle continues. So I'm going to scroll over here and I'm going to rate some of these songs. So I'll choose I Love You Babe and I'll put a lot there. And this one here I like a lot too. I'll just go ahead and randomly grab some of these guys and I want to show you something. I'm going to increase the display number to 25 songs and the upcoming songs to 25 as well. And you'll start to see that the songs I've selected as favorites will appear more often in the list, so here is I Love You Babe and here it is again and if scroll down, I'll probably see it again. So, and here it is. So the more you like a song, the more it will play in your list and you can control how many times by increasing the upcoming songs in the list here and you can also display the recently played songs as well. So party shuffle is a real nice feature. What you do is choose the playlist, which is your source and you choose the display parameters as far as recently played, upcoming and you can determine whether or not to play higher-rated songs more often by selecting this box right here.
