How To Always Shuffle?

[Guest]

I'm trying to write a script that will always launch smplayer with shuffle enabled, however whenever I use the

$ smplayer -send-action pl_shuffle

command it simply toggles shuffle on and off. How can I make it so it will only toggle shuffle to be on if shuffle is disabled but will never toggle shuffle off if it is disabled?

Thanks for the help!
