Shuffle mode not working on chromecast integration with Deezer

Hello

I'd like to ask, why the shuffle button disappears when I play music by Chromecast. Overall, Chromecast music playback works very poorly. Disconnections are common.

When I play on headphones or Bluetooth it’s fine.

Thanks

    Hey @Łukasz.S 

    At this very moment, we're unable to shuffle while casting via Chromecast. You'll have to set up a specific order before casting so that the player can follow it.

    But don't worry, we're planning to develop shuffle to Chromecast at some point in the near future. In the meantime, Happy New Year!

    When is this feature coming. I really like Deezer but this seems to be a very basic feature?!

        Can we please get an ETA on this? Seems like a point where Spotify outperforms Deezer.

        I know this topic is really old, but a workaround is to use the third party app https://stevenaleong.com/tools/deezerplaylistrandomizer to shuffle the playlist.

          The real solution is this: 


          … but Deezer does not care about Chromecast devices, or paying customers.
