[Feature Request] Make "Back" button go to previous track even when Shuffle is on

[a.poprigin.t]

Dear Volumio Developers,

I have a feature suggestion that I believe would greatly improve the playback experience.

Currently, when Shuffle mode is active, the “Back” button does not return to the previous track. Instead, it either restarts the current track or plays a completely new random track. This makes it impossible to simply go back to a song you just enjoyed, which is a basic expectation in most modern music players.

I’ve noticed that Volumio might be the only player that doesn’t handle this intuitively.

The request: Please make the “Back” button function as a standard “Previous Track” button, even when Shuffle is on. It should navigate to the historically previous song in the playback queue, rather than behaving unpredictably.

This is a small change, but for many users, it’s an essential part of a smooth listening session.

Thank you for considering this request, and for all your hard work on Volumio.

Best regards.

[Plugin] Randomizer

A long overdue update to the Randomizer Plugin description page……. Randomizer is a plugin which will allow the user to; Load and play a number of random tracks from the music library; Load and play a random album from the music library; Load and play the album from the track that is currently playing. The default number of random tracks is 25 but can be changed by the user. When installed the plugin now appears in the Sources menu making it quicker and easier to use. To use with lircrc ad…

Have a look here. It won’t help when set to random though - I don’t think that’s possible.

Hi, take any player, and there is such a function everywhere, in absolutely any OS, be it Windows, Linux or Android, but not in this one, and it’s very disappointing
