If you use the "Random songs" playlist available under "Dynamic Playlists" menu when you have the SQLPlayList plugin installed, the songs will not be repeated until the whole library has been played. I suppose you are using the Random Mix plugin now ?
I think what you ideally want to make this work is a new option on this "Random songs" playlist to select the number of hours/days until a song is allowed to play again. I will add this to the wish list to the SQLPlayList/DynamicPlaylist plugins. In theory you could also use the Custom Skip plugin for this, but I don't think it will be a good solution if you choose to skip everything played within the last 72 hours. The reason is that there will be a lot of skipping going on after a number of days and this will slow down the performance. This is especially the case if almost all tracks within the selected genres has been played. Anyway, if you still want to go the Custom Skip route I think you will be able to change the *.cs.xml file manually, you should find the time in number of seconds in this file. For example 86400 if you have selected to skip everything within 24 hours. I think it will work if you just increase this number. I will add an option for 72 hours or something similar in the next TrackStat release. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and RandomPlayList plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36387 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
