| Summary | 0003221: "is in playlist" Autoplaylist criteria addition | ||||
| Description | currently, in an autoplaylist, you can set the criteria "playlist" is / is not There are 3 powerful additions that could be made here. ---------------------------- "playlist name" contains / does not contain - so if the user has numerous playlists that all have the suffix "bestof".. then saying "contains 'bestof'" would pull from all of them AND if more best of playlists are added later.. the autoplaylist doesn't need to be edited in order to reflect the additions. ---------------------------- ---------------------------- "playlist" is immediate parent / is immediate child - letting you specify that the song must be in the parent playlist or the child playlist. - in the case of the "child" playlist... it means you can have one auto playlist which holds 5 other playlists... THe parent playlist can have "playlist 'is immediate child'" set and so will show all tracks from it's five children (this covers the request by users to show sub playlists in parent playlists but keeps it as an option) - in the case of "is parent", this benefit is not that obvious... however it would most come to fruition if copying and pasting playlists were possible (currently it seems to not be).... this would mean that a playlist can be created called "hip hop" then a child auto playlist of that could be "best of"... the child playlist would be set these criteria: is > 4 stars is in immediate parent playlist therefore creating a list of the songs in the parent list but only the 5 star songs... here's where it gets really useful... the user can then copy that child playlist and paste it into other playlists and the songs it users will update automatically to the new parent playlist. ---------------------------- | ||||
