How to play next media source after enable mode shuffle programmactically

hai there developer, how to play next media source (shuffle) after enable mode shuffle in programmatically in stead of depend on next btn from ui controller?

You can check for the next and previous window index using player.getNextWindowIndex() and player.getPreviousWindowIndex(). And then seek to this window using one of the player.seekTo methods.

To simplify such a use case, I'll mark that as an enhancement to add two methods player.next() and player.previous().

the problem is like this, first what i did was player.seekTo(player.getNextWindowsIndex(), C.UNSET) yes it goes to random position of music if enable mode shuffle before call 'player.seekTo(player.getNextWindowsIndex(), C.UNSET) ' however, again when i click again that shuffle button make it crash because no more media source next windows. Note that I have shuffle button and for your information .next() and .previous() are private method not public which can't access this method.

You need to check if getNextWindowIndex() is not C.TIME_UNSET first, before calling seekTo. We will add two methods to the player interface to skip to the next and previous item to make that easier.
