Hello,
I have just purchased a NAD CI 580 V2 and integrated it with my Control4 system.

I am using the Tidal Bluesound Control4 driver.

I would like to shuffle play Tidal->MyMusic->Songs on my Control4 like I do in the Tidal Android app.

In the Tidal Android app I can just click the My Collection->Tracks->Shuffle button.

On the Control4 Tidal driver there is no shuffle button, you have to manually select a track to play from MyMusic->Songs and then check the Shuffle button on the NowPlaying screen.

On the Android BluOS app you have to do the same, manually select a track to play from My Music->Songs->Show all and then check the Shuffle button on the NowPlaying screen. Also there is a bug there because when you check the Shuffle button it still plays random tracks, that aren't on the My Music->Songs list.

But when it comes to Playlists there is no problem playing all songs, on the BluOS Android app you select the playlist and click Play All (but it is still missing a "Shuffle all" button, just like on the Tidal Android app. Same for Control4, you can select Play All on a Playlist.

So to summarise I would like to implement the following:

- BluOS Android app -> add "Shuffle All" button next to the "Play All" button in Tidal->My Music->My Playlists->Playlist_xxx

- BluOS Android app -> add "Play All" and "Shuffle All" buttons to the My Music->Songs->Show all screen

- Control4 Bluesound Tidal driver -> add "Shuffle All" button next to the "Play All" button in My Music->My Playlists->Playlist_xxx

- Control4 Bluesound Tidal driver -> add "Play All" and "Shuffle All" buttons to the My Music->Songs, just like for My Music->My Playlists

  Yes please, a shuffle function would be amazing. Hopefully they will allow this in BluOS 4.0 early April.

  Best, KriHad

  If shuffle play in TIDAL via Control4/BluOS isn’t giving you the flexibility you want, a tool like MusConv can help. You can export or back up your TIDAL tracks and playlists, reorganize them the way you like, and even move them to another streaming service or player that offers more reliable shuffle options. That way, you’re not locked into one playback experience.
