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.
