I installed SlimServer from the slimdevices repository on a debian sarge system: deb http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main SlimServer reports: SlimServer Version: 6.5.0 - 9916 - Debian - EN - iso-8859-1 Server IP address: 10.34.1.21 Perl Version: 5.8.4 i386-linux-thread-multi MySQL Version: 4.1.11-Debian_4sarge7 NOTE: I did change the settings from the same web-browser, but selecting the player I was controlling didn't seem to affect the random playlist filtering (ie: random filters appear to be a gloabal setting of slimserver, not something that is per-player adjustable). radish;151602 Wrote: > You mentioned one specific instance where the random playlist generator > seemed to have a bug.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "cross-coupling" and > what your concerns are? I'm mainly interested in dynamic playlist creation (ie: random or preferably 'smart' based on chosen/skipped songs, mood, genre, last-played-time, etc), but I need multi-user support as I will have several listeners and I don't want them poluting each other's statistics (ie: I don't want to listen to (very much of) my wife's music, and she probably doesn't want to listen to most of mine! :). I'm concerned that something as basic as genre filtering doesn't seem to work based on which player I'm using (or even better, which user I connect as). I'm looking into some of the plugin addons to see if they help address this, but would appreciate any pointers from someone more familiarity with the server software. Also, is there any way to associate a "listener" to a player session, or are the settings purely based on which player device is connecting? I'm wondering what happens when my wife and I share a player in a common location (like the living room), and how we prevent steping on each other's settings (particularly if I get some sort of dynamic playlist generator like MusicIP setup).
