Please log in for more thread options Yea, in Media Player, under File, is Create Auto Playlist. With that it
gives you a box to set criteria. You can set just 5 star music or other
parameters, and also limit to size, number of items or duration. It should
automatically shuffle things in and out of that list. You have to set that
list up to sync automatically with your PAC though, so each time you connect
and fire up Media Player it will update it.
