Control point (android) with shuffle by album/composition/group

[DavidHB]

Generically, what you are asking for is a shuffle function that shuffles containers rather than tracks. I know of no reason why this can't be done, but to the best of my knowledge no current control point actually does it.

MinimServer already does its bit by organising groups of tracks into relevant containers (GROUP, DISCSUBTITLE etc.), so the problem, as you surmised, is at the Control Point end. If bubbleguuum reads this, it would be useful if could comment on the feasibility of doing something along these lines. As, presumably like you, I listen mainly to classical music, the current track-based shuffle function is of very limited value for my purposes.
