playlists. Although the standard SqueezeCenter doesn't support smart
playlists by itself, together with iTunes and the standard
SqueezeCenter iTunes integration, it is possible to use smart
playlists defined in iTunes. The problem though is that the integrated
iTunes smart playlists will not be recalculated until the next time
you perform a rescan in SqueezeCenter. The SQL Playlist plugin takes
care of this problem and implements native smart playlist in
SqueezeCenter without any need to use iTunes. The smart playlists
implemented in SQL Playlist will also be automatically re-calculated
after each track played so they will be based on the latest statistic
information.
A smart playlist in SQL Playlist are continous and will run forever in
the same way as the standard Random Mix plugin, you can optionally
also choose that a smart playlist shouldn't repeat already played
tracks and in that case the music will stop when all songs matching
the playlist has been played.

the playlist and determines whether an album is playing or if random
tracks are playing. After that determination, it sets the player's
transition behaviour (crossfade, fade, etc) appropriately. The
transition behaviour for the album/random/default cases can be changed
by modifying the values of the four global variables at the top of
Transitions.pm. There is also a user configurable section for
excluding specific genres from being processed for album/random
detection. In these cases, the 'default' transition preference will be
used (not in v1.5).

stores statistics about the last time a track was played, when a
specific track was added to the library and how many times a track has
been played. The problem is that all of these statistics are cleared
every time you perform a full rescan of SqueezeCenter.
The TrackStat plugin solves this problem by making sure that the
statistics survive a rescan. Besides this TrackStat also extends the
statistics a bit, one example is that it doesn't count a track as
played just because you listen to the first 2 seconds of it, you will
have to play a certain amount of the track until it is played.
TrackStat also makes it possible to put a rating on all your tracks by
holding a number between 1-5 down on the now playing screen.
The other main functionality the TrackStat plugins provides is various
ways to browse your music based on the statistic information. The
standard SqueezeCenter only makes it possible to show most played
tracks. The TrackStat plugin makes it possible to show the statistics
in a lot more ways. The purpose is simply to give you another way to
select which music you like to play, for example like:
* Find tracks you haven't played for a long time
* Find tracks you have recently added to the library
* Find top rated tracks
* Find least played tracks
* And a lot more...

FLAC, uncompressed WAV, AIFF, MOD, S3M, XM, and IT files. For audio
output, Audiere supports DirectSound or WinMM in Windows, OSS on
Linux and Cygwin, and SGI AL on IRIX.
Audiere is open source and licensed under the LGPL. This means that
you may freely use Audiere in commercial products, as long as you
do not modify the source code. If you do modify Audiere and release
a product that uses your modifications, you must release your changes
to the code under the LGPL as well.
Audiere is portable. It is tested on Windows, Linux-i386, Cygwin,
and IRIX with at least three major compilers. Most of Audiere is
endian-independent, so I expect it would work with few modifications
on other architectures.

the vibrato, tremolo, portamento, the tuning of both oscillators,
the oscillator mix, the shape amount (total and split over both
shapers) and the phase of the second waveshaper function. There is
also an ADSR envelope generator that can control the total shape
amount and the amplification (with controllable sensitivity for
both), an LFO for the total shape amount, distortion, and a feedback
delay.
The shape amount and amplification is velocity sensitive, and the
synth supports MIDI pitch bend events (with a range of +/- 2
semitones). All parameters can be controlled using MIDI Controller
