does this have a mode to play a random file every time its triggered or is it just continuous or looping one file?

You can make up to five separate short files. It will play a diferent one each time. We've had a lot of fun with it. So far it has worked well.

I had to buy a small smd card that holds (I think) 4 KB of memory. That means it will only play one song. Each time the motion detector is activated the song plays again. It's plenty loud and surprisingly good sound quality. I bought them for a coin operated carousel I restored for my grandchildren to ride when they visit. I bought a second for my rock garden that goes on when you walk up to it. Worth the money. Just a pain to get the extra card ($5.00) each and up load to it if your not sure how to do those things..Hope this helped?

There is a Random choice when you set the Repeat mode on the latest remote -- it will shuffle or repeat whatever videos files that are in the current folder.

Hi there. Yes, there's a shuffle control so you can play songs randomly (which is one of the things I really like about it!)

Yes it does. Select Play Mode and click until you get "Repeat," then use the down arrow for "Repeat On" and press OK.

In USB mode, it is capable of loop. Even if you turn it off, the audio file will continue to play as soon as you switched it on.

Regardless of music being in folders or not, there's no "Random-Play" option. The speaker DOES remember last song played and resumes from that one. The sound is amazing for a little thing like that. Excellent for laptops' and tablets' speakers.

Yes it will shuffle. When the player is on, press pause (power on/off) button, then NEXT button, the player will be in random play mode. To get it out of random mode press pause then the previous button and it will go back to in order play.

I believe it creates a new file, if you can pause it, I haven't figured it out!

Actually I just did this in an art gallery. I put one 8 minute mp4 in the root directory (no subfolder). All the staff had to do was turn on the player and the monitor, and it played looped all day automatically. They never used the remote control. What it doesn't seem to do is play mixed files (video and photos). But it will play through multiple movies then loop back to the first one.There is a "settings" from the remote control. You can choose "autoplay" and "movie" in the menu items. That sets your "default" player.

I have only used the player to play regular music CDs and play them from beginning to end. However, the owner's manual lists three additional playback modes. There is a random playback mode where all of the files on the disc are played in random order. There is a memory playback mode in which you can make a playback list of up to 25 files. There is a repeat mode. In the repeat playback mode, you can play an entire CD repeatedly, play one track repeatedly, or combine it with the memory playback to play the playlist repeatedly or random playback to play all of the tracks on the disc in random order repeatedly.

It plays continuous but it has a timer button. I believe it has 3-5 songs, but I cant find it right this second to give that exact answer. The songs are very quiet compared to the heartbeat and white noise/ocean.

not that I know of. they play randomly. not sure if there is a setting to make it play in a specific order.

It has "Track Programming" which means you can tell it which tracks to play. Shuffle mode allows you to randomize songs from several disks and since this is a single disc player that's not possible.

The Mode button basically controls the repeat, random, and introduction features. One click repeats the current track, the second click repeats all tracks, the third click plays the tracks in random order, the fourth click is intro, which plays the first ten seconds of each track in sequential order. A tiny icon appears for each function on the LCD screen. you have to look closely, it's very small. These modes work on USB and memory card inputs as well.

Yes, there is a random button. I have some 267 songs on an SD card and just press the random button.

Although I've never used the random/shuffle mode, it seems that this little gem can play mp3s in random mode. Their instruction sheet tells how to select/deselect "Radom play" [I believe they meant 'Random play'].

There is no automatic repeat button. You can go back using << button after the track is played. There is another not so neat trick. But i will suggest anyway. Create a folder and put only the song you want to be auto repeated. When you play from this folder at the end of playing it should repeat I think. But this may not be the way you want repeat function - sorry
