SHUFFLE OPTION Does IRiver Clix2G have a random/shuffle option? Also, is it easy to switch from song to song or from radio to song on the move, while you are running for example?

if you go to the flash games there is something called iriver clix tutorial, this will tell you all about how to use it

Thanks for your very clear instructions! I've been searching all over the internet for this! I love my iriver Clix, but the user guide is not the most informative.

Two months is a long time, but others may like to know how to access the Shuffle mode. This method also applies to the new Clix 2.When you're in the Now Playing screen press and hold the Play/Pause button (right edge of screen). At the top of the slide-in menu you'll see Play Mode. Click Pause button again and scroll down to Shuffle and choose it.

Unfortunately, this is my biggest gripe about all MP3 players - PROGRAMABILITY! The only way you're going to be able to play the way you want is to build playlists on your computer and then select random play. Or you can use the bookmark feature directly on the Gigabeat and have it randomly play. There is no way to play just an artist or genre folder randomly.

It's basically just a speaker. You would use your device to control everything. So yes, you can use shuffle. This thing was hard to figure out and the directions were terrible. But it is tiny, and sounds okay once you do figure out how to use it.

Conflicting answers! Several say it can be set to random - has anyone actually TRIED it? Or are they just saying the setting is there? I've had one that has a "random" setting and it doesn't shuffle the photos - they play in exactly the same order I loaded them on the flash drive. Can anyone explain the conflicting answers, or provide a link to a frame they KNOW will shuffle the order? Thank you.

Yes, it has several options. It has intelligent shuffle (the truly random shuffle you want), it has shuffle & repeat if you want it, or shuffle by year, etc.

When your music is on push the 'menu' button twice. Not too fast. The second push should show 'Random' that is your shuffle. If that doesn't work then when you push menu and it shows folders...then scroll with the right side of the button and it should go to the second page to show 'Random and Intro' scroll to Random and hit 'menu' and it will show a "R" with an arrow at the top, then you know you are in shuffle mode. Hope you can play with it and get it figured out. it took me lots of time to figure it out, It works great for what I got it for. It can be a real pain sometimes. It can be inconsistent at times.

Mine always restarts the last song played before unplugging. There must be an internal charge that holds the memory. I have not figured out how to change to "shuffle" mode. The display shows different modes available. I don't have enough buttons on the unit or remote to access modes unless there is a secret button press combination needed. If anyone finds a way to change to shuffle I would like to know.

I just use the arrows to move to songs. If you want them to play in order, you move the "on" button half way. They shuffle when you put the button all the way over (you can see all of the green).

you just have to load indiviual songs on in the order you want. The shuffle is a very simple device: play/pause, volume, and skip/reverse

It does not do the "perfect shuffle" as one side always seems to be left with 2 to 4 cards to be shuffled. This is due to the location of the one side's driving gear, as it is not necessarily in sync with the other side's driving gear position. If you are looking for the "perfect shuffle", you would probably have to spend a lot more money for a shuffling card device to meet your criteria. I would still recommend this device as it suits my purpose for shuffling multiple card decks at a reasonable price. Hope this provides some insight to your question.

This plays in the order you copy and paste the mp3 into it. I don't believe it shuffles.

It has a random button that plays tracks from all loaded discs in a random order. It stops when all tracks have been played once. I believe that is the same as shuffle.

Yes you may enable shuffle mode by press and holding Menu/Shuffle button for two seconds.(SHu will appear on the screen of Soundfly)ArthurSatechi Technical Support

Yes, it does have a shuffle play. It requires pressing one of the buttons (I believe its Mode) until you enter that mode. There is no audible or visual indicator about the mode, so you have to use trial and error.In addition, if the SD card is inserted when you turn the speaker on, it will play sporadically. Simple eject the SD card and re-insert it and the speaker will play normally.

Don't use that option much but..I believe you need to find the category marked "settings" and there should be a sub-category marked "shuffle"-HTH.

yes it is similar to an apple ipod in this sense. it will never play the same track twice in random unless you completely played all your songs in the shuffle
