I have made a new plugin called Custom Skip which makes it possible to define skip filters that skips specific tracks before they are played. Best used together with Dynamic Playlist plugin, but skipping can also optionally be enabled in the setting page for all other type of browsing and playlists.
Some examples about things that can be done: - Skip tracks rated less than 2 (Requires TrackStat) - Skip unrated tracks (Requires TrackStat) - Skip tracks from a specific album - Skip tracks which is part of a selected playlists - Skip tracks that is part of the zapped playlist - Skip tracks by a specific artist - Skip tracks in a specific genre - Skip short tracks - Skip long tracks For each skip item you can also define a precentage that indicate the chance that a matching track will be skipped. This way to can define a filter that plays all rated tracks with for example SQLPlayList plugin and apply a skip filter that skips 50% of the tracks rated less than 2. A skip filter can modified either by goto the Custom Skip menu in the Plugins section or by browsing to an album, artist, genre and holding play down and selecting Custom Skip. You can also have several filters defined and choose which one you like to use. The first thing you will need to use the plugin after installation is to create a new filter from the Custom Skip web interface. You will find the plugin at my download page as usual. NOTE 1 If used together with the Dynamic Playlist plugin you will need at least version 1.11 of the Dynamic Playlist plugin. NOTE 2 It has only been tested on slimserver 6.5.* and probably doesn't work on any previous slimserver version. If anyone tests this plugin I would appreciate some feedback about how it works and wishes for new features and improvement of existing features. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-trackstat) , 'SQLPlayList' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-sqlplaylist) , 'DynamicPlayList' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-dynamicplaylist), 'Custom Browse' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-custombrowse),'Custom Scan' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-customscan) and 'RandomPlayList' (http://erland.homeip.net/download/do/viewapplication?name=slimserver-randomplaylist) plugins) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31381 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
