"play random music from my entire library, forever" button
This is all I ever want to do. It's actually pretty hard to find a music player I can turn on and 10 hours later still be enjoying random tracks from my library. (extra points if track loading errors or intermittent connection issues won't stop it)
Any chance of making (some of) that happen?
"(some of) that" recently made it into the stable release: the queue has a random! button now which loads about 50 random tracks. There's a secret plan, though, to extend that along the lines of your thinking. :sailboat:
Awesome, I loaded it up and it's there. Seems to work fine on my pc.
Small issue, though. On Android 4.1.2 + a fairly recent version of Chrome, the panel that holds the "random!" button disappears on page load.
On Chrome 30.0.1599.2 (newest) the page won't load at all. On the server side the last thing I see is a call to restoreplaylist, then heartbeats.

Alright, thanks for reporting this bug! I opened #361 for it. In the future, please feel free to open as many separate issues as you feel necessary for stuff like this. :)
I just created a first working version for a lazy track, so that it's possible to create endless playlists. It still resides in a separate branch, as it is still kind of buggy. https://github.com/devsnd/cherrymusic/tree/lazytrack
Feel free to try it out. You can add a track generator by pressing the random! button. The generator is replaced by a real track once it is played. It doesnt always work, especially woth corrupt tracks.
Been using it for a couple days. Already seems to work about as well as other 'random, but really only until a track hangs' features out there.
I did have to create a virtualenv for it to run from. Couldn't 'setup.py install' straight over the old version... it complained about missing files once I tried to run it.
