I wondered if Dynamic Playlists 4 will work with Trackstat. I like Ratings Light but one feature seems to be absent that I particularly like. Trackstat updates ratings of albums based on plays and unless I misunderstand how Ratings Light works it does not automatically rate albums in this way. I

First off it was a user error on finding the static playlist. Looked on the wrong computer! It was in my defined Playlist folder on the correct computer. Second, When I click on a Dynamic playlist I created in Material skin on Windows there's no save static in the menu. 39514 +

Dynamic playlists that use the DPL4 *cache option* cannot have a track limit because DPL4 loads *all* tracks matching the dynamic playlist's search parameter into the cache in one initial database query (more detailled explanation in DPL upgrade FAQ). That's why you can't set a track limit in DPL

Okay, I see this setting for # of tracks is in DPL4 settings. I could have sworn it was in the DPLC selection settings, at least for Random tracks advanced. Main system - Rock Solid with LMS 8.3.1 on WHS 2011 - 2 Duets ( both WiFi, farthest unit gets 60% signal strength and always works since

Just swapped out DPL3 for DPL4 and find there's no longer a setting in DPLC that specifies the number of tracks to add at a time and seems to be hard coded at 20 tracks. I use this setting if I want to create a playlist that will put all songs that match my criteria into the queue on the first sh

After messing with DPLC w/DPL3 I'm thinking DPLC deserves it's own "Announce" thread. I believe w/DPL4 and DPLC you've successfully replaced both Erlands DPL and SQL Playlists. Earlier in this thread I asked where DPLC put the SQL for a created playlist or if the SQL for a DPLC was generated on t
