Ultimate Jukebox

A huge media library can be a problem if you intend to play music at a party. You can not queue songs indefinitely and at some point, the media player will repeat songs or it will play something that does not work with your party's theme. Ultimate Jukebox provides the same features as other advanced media players, including advanced sorting capabilities, but it comes with its own unique functions as well. Besides organizing your music instantly, you can set up numerous rules, to play your songs, videos or karaoke files however you want.

Ultimate Jukebox is not expensive and you can use a trial version, with a few restrictions, for 30 days, before you decide to purchase the product. You can install it fast, without any difficulties, on all popular Windows versions. The best part is that Ultimate Jukebox is updated constantly, based on user feedback. If you are using Windows 7 or Vista, you should run the program as an administrator, otherwise you will encounter a few errors.

The user interface is well organized and it's quite easy to get used to its layout. Songs are grouped in alphabetical order and by their albums or genres, in the central region of the window. Selecting a group will display the songs themselves, on the right side of the interface and you can double click individual items, to add them to a playlist, in the lower area. You can select different view styles, in the central area, if you wish to organize your songs by albums, with cover arts or in a database tree.

You can either add your songs to the playlist and randomize them or play a specific song on a loop or play random songs from your entire library. The software is very flexible when it comes to playing random songs. You can define numerous random play rules, on a tabbed window. Depending on your settings, Ultimate Jukebox will avoid playing the same song or a track from the same artist, for a certain period of time. It can also play random songs from specific artists, genres, years or from certain folders.
