From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They remove the shuffle playlist

Shuffle playlist as a shortcut or cli-argument? Shortcuts can be customized in inputs config.

Also there are three in the list (only searching for „browse“): blackbox, file-browser, simple-loader

file-browser (or mpv-file-browser) can be customized for shortcuts. blackbox and simple-loader i could not find if they can be.

Do you launch with shuffle, some songs shuffle, add new song via browser and it plays the new next and not later? Or does it break the playlist? If the latter, maybe create an issue with the browser, sounds like a bug.

When i choose a file, it clears the playlist

Yep that sounds like a bug. You can report it on github, all three scripts have repos.
