Can you explain, what you mean by shuffled in a bit more detail.
I have never heard of something like this, nor can I reproduce it!

The only thing which can happen is, that a FTE is moved up or down a little depending to the recent, effective play-out.
Note, that an FTE is bound to a certain time, e.g. 15:20h - as such, if your tracks play shorter or longer in your playlist (e.g. while playing them manually or moderating in live-assist mode), it might be, that the FTE position is moved up/down one playlist position, in order to still align with its Fixed-Time in real-time. This is by design and effectively 'wanted'.
But I have never seen it being shuffled.

Well it is like this. i have 4 rows 1 jingle 1 song 1jingle 1 hour opener, now the fun is that when the playlist is running, i gret standard the same order but when one player is done the whole bunch move zo like 1 jingle 1 hour opener, 1 song 1 jingle. so lets say player B is on the jingle that is oke by FTE it wil run but whem player a is done the whole bunch shuffles again and player is starting the second jingle and not the song. bit frustrating :)

I am sorry, but I can hardly follow your example.
What is the FTE in your example?
And is this a manual playlist or a scheduled playlit?
What are your AutoPlay setting, ie.: Follow On/Off?; Preserve On/Off?
Maybe you can post some screenshots?
