Tim Bishop 515a7a346e - Add slimserver-sqlplaylist:
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.
