All of a sudden,my VLC Media Player only plays tracks randomly,how can I get it to play tracks in listed order again?

In the playlist, click as many times as needed on the little icon in the top right corner, left to the search box.

The button on the top right of the playlist changes the playlist view and does not affect the order of media...

On the main viewing screen (not the playlist), press R. I'm not sure the case matters but pressing R once turns on random playlist and pressing it again turns it off.

Enjoy.

I had this problem for days, It was driving me crazy. I found in another thread that the random toggle button needs to be clicked. On the player control element beginning from left to right (play, return, stop,....and so on) look to the last button the ultimate right in this area, This is the "random play" button. If it looks pushed in, click again, to turn it off" (button looks like coming out)
