Music player to play random FLAC files from Twonky NAS

[David Cottom]

All of my music is stored as FLAC files on a NAS running Twonky media server. It is currently about 7000 tracks so too big to store on my Android phone or tablet. Could someone please suggest a music player that will play random tracks, in FLAC format of course, from the NAS? I've tried LOTS of music players but haven't yet found one that meets my requirements. Some won't play FLAC files. Some can't access the NAS. Some can't play random tracks, instead playing the tracks in a specified album in order or requiring that I compile a playlist first. If it makes a difference, the tracks are in a pretty standard structure ARTIST\ALBUM\track_name.FLAC. Thank you for your help.

I had created an account and logged in, or thought I had, but something must have glitched. Anyway, logged in now - I hope!

Hi, welcome!
Let me see if @Rukbat can help with this

About all I can suggest is VLC for Android (it plays from the LAN, it plays .flac files - I don't think it plays a folder randomly, though) or one of the few dozen music players on Play.

Finding something good that will play random tracks is going to be the problem.
