How do you schedule the tracks, via a script-line?
Is the entry really the same file? And have you reloaded the media library (ie. have you changed the restriction from the media library entry)?
And are you using the Professional or Enterprise License (Premium or Basis doesn’t support script restrictions)?

Hello,

I am using the Pro version.
The tracks are scheduled via script.
I usually run a re-synchronization about once a month, otherwise the computer starts to favor certain tracks too much.

This is quite a big issue for me, since the program doesn’t seem to be able to use the whole library properly — it tends to prefer some tracks, while other tracks with the same parameters are not played at all.

I can not reproduce your observation.
Typically any bias is due to History Settings or other restrictions.
And what do you mean by re-synchronization?

How do you test and verify your assumption ?

Also note, that the Random Mode is really random, ie. it only equals after a very high number of random draws, which might take several months (depending on your number of tracks).
You might try the LeastRecentlyPlayed script-line mode.
