ABSTRACT:
A method for randomly shuffling through a large set of video and/or audio clips using a media player and related readable media is disclosed. In one form, the total number of entries in the set of clips is a prime number. An initial current clip value is randomly generated between one and the total number of entries in the set. A jump value is randomly generated between one and the total number of entries in the set minus one. To select a subsequent current clip, the current clip value and the jump value are added together. This sum is divided by the number of entries in the set. The remainder from this division is saved as the subsequent current clip value.
