Hello, I’d like to make a request for a “Play Shuffled” button to be added to the mobile apps. For TV shows that are on my server for which viewing order doesn’t matter, I like having the ability to play randomly shuffled episodes on my TV through Chromecast. There’s a button for that on the web interface, but it’s not very convenient needing to go to my computer every time I want shuffled playback. I can’t seem to find the same function on the apps. Is there any chance of the being added? Thanks!
