Lets say I have files 1.ogg 2.ogg 3.ogg 4.ogg and I want copy them to player every time in different order like 2.ogg 1.ogg 3.ogg 4.ogg or any else combination. But combination must change every time wen I copy files.

Thanks for answers in advice.

Can't you use (or doesn't it have) the shuffle capability of your player?

In this case, use a music player that allows you to play randomly from a playlist. The option is usually called shuffle.

well no one is seriously going to write a formal program to do that, but that doesn't stop you scripting something yourself in a few minutes.

in future, write useful and informative questions please. despite the fact that it would be very useful here, we aren't psychic.

Thanks to every one for answers. Well next time I'll try ask questions more informative. And no my player is more then 2 years old and don't support play list nor shuffle it play file by file like write in. Well for scripting I had to short brains and hands.
