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...

TagLookup is a utility for tagging MP3s and other taggable audio file formats.
It inspects a set of audio files and uses their lengths to look up an
appropriate disc from a CDDB-compatible service. TagLookup can be used in two
modes:
* ID -- Given a CDDB ID and a number of files, look up the details of the CDDB
disc from a CDDB service. Tag files using the CDDB disc. Match each file with
each CDDB track using the closest track length.
* Sequence -- Given a number of files, generate a CDDB ID and query a CDDB
service. CDDB IDs are generated based on the sequence of tracks. Choose the
closest matching CDDB disc to tag the files.
As well as this, taglookup can:
* Rename -- Rename files based on their tags.

This is a statistic plugin for Slimserver. Slimserver normally
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 slimserver.
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 slimserver 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...

This plugin for Slimserver makes it possible to create smart
playlists. Although the standard Slimserver doesn't support smart
playlists by itself, together with iTunes and the standard Slimserver
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 Slimserver. The SQL Playlist plugin takes care of this
problem and implements native smart playlist in Slimserver 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 Dynamic Playlist plugin is a Slimserver plugin that makes it

GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).

DSSI is an open and well-documented specification developed for use
in Linux audio applications, although portable to other platforms.
It may be thought of as LADSPA-for-instruments, or something
comparable to VSTi.
DSSI consists of a C language API for use by plugins and hosts,
based on the LADSPA API, and an OSC (Open Sound Control) API for
use in user interface to host communications. The DSSI specification
consists of an RFC which describes the background for the proposal
and defines the OSC part of the specification, and a documented
header file which defines the C API.
