The good thing with DSTM, especially with Spotty is, that the recommendations are based on the previous song, I don't want a song of a completely different genre breaking the flow. Would there be an option to regenerate the random mix based on the last added song? Also, I have looked into the sourcecode of the Spotty DSTM plugin (https://github.com/michaelherger/Spotty-Plugin/blob/master/DontStopTheMusic.pm) and in line 37 it sets the seed limit to 25 which is what I presume the amount of songs added to the DSTM mix because that is the amount of songs that I get in my playlist once it has ended. I have never compiled any plugins myself so I'll have to look into how I could make changes to the plugin and re-compile it. But do you think that there is any reason why I could not decrease the limit? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fliwatt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71356 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115746 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
