Hi,
Absolutely love the upgrades with version 4 -- keep up the fantastic work.

Requesting the option to "Sort by Random" since in a large database and the way it refreshes after updates to the filter it can be difficult to work on files "in the middle" of the list.

What I'm basically looking for is a way to "discover" files to add tags that are kind of stuck now .. the program is great and the new media views are amazing but I've been running into frequent crashes when trying to do much scrolling around/browsing "in the middle" of the list while it looks like it's re-paginating or etc.

As a workaround I've done things like picking random tags and sorting using various other methods but it would be nice to have "random items" bubble up to the top.

Thanks ..!

Items will be sorted randomly after each change on the view.
I mean the program will not store that random sort order and will calculate it each time randomly.

Another question is - can I have a log of your crash?
You can check it in crash details or in Windows event viewer.

That sorting method is perfect, and absolutely on the crash log. I'll grab it and send it to you.

(And wow .. talk about turnaround time on feature requests ..!! Thanks ..!! :o )

Random sorting is implemented in Videonizer 4.0.0.2.
