Abstract
A DVD random shuffle method includes adapting a DVD player to play a pre-set initial routine, and instructing the DVD player to present a subsequent routine selection to a user. The subsequent routine selection is between a first pre-set routine and a second routine. The second routine is a random re-sequencing of the first pre-set routine. The method also includes directing the DVD player to play one of the first and second routines depending on the routine selection of the user, and thereafter, commanding the DVD player to play a pre-set terminal routine.
