Are those lists dynamic, i.e. if you rip a new album will it get
included?

Just for information for those that doesn't want to use iTunes.
You can also do this with the SQLPLayList and DynamicPlayList plugins
without using iTunes. The playlists will be automatically include new
tracks added to the slimserver that matches the criterias.

When I am listening to a random assortment of songs, I sometimes like
to manually queue up some tunes into the playlist as well. A particular
random tune will play, and I'll think, Hey, that really puts me in the
mood to hear song X. If I have a 1000-song smart playlist

Didn't know that one. Thanks.

I'll second this as a brilliant idea.
The only way i can think of is to fudge it so all your 80's songs have
the same year, say 1980. A bit long winded but would provide the
desired result.
How about putting a year under the Composer tag or something. can be
play by composer?? haven't looked.
Also remember that slimserver allows the possibility of multiple values
in tags, with the separator as specified under Server settings
Behavior. You could create genres for 1960s, 1970s, etc. and random
play within genres. For example, if the separator is a semi-colon, you
could have Punk;
Yes it is easy to set up in itunes: smartplaylist:
1. Genre contains pop [stops classical and ambient etc]
2. Yr is in the range 1980-1989 [limits to decade]
3. Rating does not = 0 [weeds out rubbish]
4. Kind contains MPEG [limits to mp3 not videos etc]
Result = 80s pop fest!
