I have been playing with custom channels with single and multiple series. No matter how I configure the shuffle movie/shuffle episode check boxes the episodes get shuffled anyway. I was attempting to get 4 series onto a single channel playing each series in a random order but the episodes themselves in order. I can't get the episodes to schedule in order even when I only put one series on the channel.

are you rescheduling the channel? the app schedules 24 hours out so you wont see any changes until 24 hours or you reschedule

Yes this still happens when I reschedule manually. Tried it multiple times and it was shuffling no matter what. I was saving channel>reschedule after modifying each check box. I tried every combination of checked and unchecked and it was shuffling every time.

can anyone else recreate the issue? I cannot reproduce the issue. My channels are always ordered to correctly match my settings for the channel.
Have you tried creating a new channel? by default it orders by episode order. The other possibility is your server does have any episode numbers? the content requires episode and season number to be correct in order to order

I recreated a couple different channels without doing anything besides adding a single series to it. It put the episodes in order this time but not from the beginning. Always sunny for example began with Season 11, episode 9. The simpsons started at season 9 episode 1. My series and movies are all named based on trash guides recommended for plex. This feature definitely worked properly when I first setup the app because I remember not wanting the episodes to be in order when I first started making custom channels.

yea it picks a random first episode and goes from there in order... live TV doesnt have every show start with episode 1 at the same time

i just created a new channel with a single show, set it to shuffle episode order and then scheduled it. Show had its episodes in a random order.. as expected. I then edited the channel and unchecked "shuffle episode order", clicked save, clicked reschedule. Waited 15-30 seconds and the channel guide refreshed the channel and is now showing the episodes in episode order.. starting at a random episode in the series as expected
