I was hoping that a new feature could be added so that the screensavers could just shuffle in one go, it would be great so that the same screensaver doesn't repeat over and over. If that option does exist, can somebody please tell me how to activate it, would be really appreciated, thanks.

Hi, I'm not sure I understand your question, can you clarify what you see exactly ?

Here's how it work, Aerial will make a playlist of all your selected videos (the list on the left of the main panel) that fullfills the current day/night criteria (say if you selected a day/night mode or something like that that restricts videos to night only, Aerial will make a playlist of all your selected night videos only). When that playlist is done, a new playlist gets created (criteria may have changed, you may get day videos only now) and gets shuffled, then gets played.

From memory, Aerial should never play a video back to back even when you switch from one playlist to the next. It should only happen if you:

So I'd check :

If not please give me more details about exactly what you see.
