It would be great to have a feature like iTunes Smart Playlists, but as a Smart Filter instead of a playlist.
You could define filters using SlimServer and then apply them from the player. The filters would be setup much like the Smart Playlists in iTunes, but unlike a playlist, once a filter is applied to a Squeezebox, every function of the SqueezeBox will ignore items that do not fall into the filter. Filters could be selected from the SB at a top level menu so that all existing menu options (i.e. Browse, Search, etc...) would only operate on the filtered data. I could create a filter that only contains FLAC files, or a filter for my kids music, or a filter that blocks out all my kids music (for my use). What about a filter to only show only classical music, or just the opposite (show everything but classical music). A filter to show everything but holliday music? Defined filters could also be stacked (combined).
