Hi,

I'm writing because a feature seems to have stopped working as it once did.  When playing a mix, there has been the option to 'shuffle' or to have the mix 'autoplay' (or both) for quite some time.  (I understand that 'shuffle' is just a sort on the first playthrough of the mix, and that it's not something that will change every time.) 

However, as of right now, shuffle does nothing.  Here's a sample URL:
http://8tracks.com/mixes/6110708/player_v3_universal/shuffle

The very first track on that mix is "Weather" by Novo Amor.  No matter the browser, that's what we get.  (A little too much for chance, no?)

Conversely, this URL:
http://8tracks.com/mixes/6110708/player_v3_universal/autoplay

Works exactly as intended.

So, finally, my question: Has shuffle been removed, or am I doing it wrong?

Thanks so much for your attention to this! :)

Jonathan, thanks for writing. We may have broken this feature, I'll pass this over to the developer who worked on it.

Ah, ok.  Glad it's not something I did...

Thanks for the quick response!  I'll sit tight and see how it goes. :)

Jonathan, it should work again.

Cheers,
