Ability to PLAY ALL tracks and shuffle for ALL MUSIC

I am new to Plex, but starting to get the hang of what it can and can't do and one thing that I would like the Music Player to be able to do is shuffle ALL SONGS.  Right now, in the iPhone App, you can do it if you pick artist.  It allows you to "Play All Tracks" for an artist, but what I'd like to do is "Play All Tracks" for ALL my Artists, and shuffle between them.

 

Additionally, in the Web App, I'd like to be able to shuffle even at the Artist level.  Seems that the iOS app can do it but the web cannot.

 

Thanks!

I would also like this very much. Hopefully the music area of Plex gets some very needed features this year so that I begin to use Plex Home Theater more often for my music listening. Right now, I stick with the old Plex Media Center for music because it at least has the "shuffle all" feature.

PLEASE!!!

even my very 1st mp3 player can do this...

Definitely a must have! I use plex for absolutely everything, but I'm currently using Spotify more as the Plex app doesn't have the ability to play all music. And not all of my artists have the option for 'All tracks'. 

+1 for this to be added!

Yes yes yes please

This is a must to have with anything that plays music. Add please!!!

Is it true that I can only shuffle tracks that start with the same letter??? Yeah, I'm really in the mood to shuffle my E's.

That is crazy. I want to shuffle all my tracks. I hope this is being fixed.

Guys, this already exists. When browsing all artists, drag down at the very very top, you will see a shuffle button on the right. This will shuffle everything.

I can’t find this on the Plex Home Theater OS X apple. Sounds like the solution from gmdude66 is for the iOS app.

Is there a way to shuffle all my songs on PHT for OS X?

Can’t you just make a playlist with all your music in it then tell plex to play that playlist?

Here is how you do it on an iphone:

You can do it on the mobile app, but not on the desktop (Web browser) app – is that correct?

Of course you can.
Simply click on this icon, without ‘selecting’ anything beforehand:

Well, sort of - it plays some but given the size of my library it really does seem to like the same few songs…
