RCA Lyra RD2840 "shuffle" mode

cinezonkerx

Perhaps someone here knows how to avoid this major problem with putting this MP3 player in shuffle mode. When you shut it off and then re-start, it replays all the songs previously heard. It's odd that it does not do a fresh re-shuffle after each power-up.

The Evil Empire doesn't like me! Recently, I have completed slipstreaming SP4 and all the SP5 hotfixes into a W2K distribution. In testing this it has become apparent that something isn't quite right.
