Shuffle All

Loads all music from the library into the queue and enables shuffle

Album Shuffle

Enables album shuffle mode which will add a few albums into the queue at random (but the tracks will be sorted by track number) and will ensure more albums are added when approaching the end of the queue.  Album shuffle mode also has slightly different behavior for the next/prev album actions.  It will jump to the next or previous album already in the queue.

Auto-DJ

Turns on Auto-DJ.  Auto-DJ will keep the queue populated with tracks as the playback position approaches the end.  The tracks added are based off the ruleset selected.  Genres and Smart Playlists can be used as rules for Auto-DJ using the context menu, otherwise the default rules are used for track selection.  See the settings page for customizing Auto-DJ.

3.4.0

Plans for 3.4 changed a bit when google announced they will be hiding apps on newer versions of android if they dont target the newer sdks.  GMMP always tries to target one of the more recent versions of android, but the unlocker has no need for that since its essentially just a license key.  As of May 1st the unlocker will be hidden on newer versions of android to those who have not already purchased.  Because of this, the focus of 3.4 was to get in app purchases working to allow users to buy the full version after May 1st.  There is a new 'Purchase' section in the settings where the unlocker can now be purchased. One other change in 3.4 is the support for the Android 13+ media controls.  They changed around how to customize them, so that is reflected in a new 'Media Controls' section of the settings. The language can also be changed for just GMMP via the system settings The changelog itself is fairly small but I did a large update of all the libraries / dependencies t
