My DP3 (version 3.6.7) seems to have gone a bit crazy lately. It's running on a combined player/server that literally only EVER gets turned on and off, that is, I turn it off when I get up in the morning and turn it back on when I go to bed at night. I've been using this SQL:
Code: -------------------- -- PlaylistName:Albums - entirely or partially unplayed -- PlaylistGroups: -- PlaylistLimitOption:unlimited -- PlaylistTrackOrder: ordered drop table if exists dynamicplaylist_random_albums; --This step obtains *ONE* album ID for an album with at least one unplayed track create temporary table dynamicplaylist_random_albums as select partiallyplayed.album as album from (select distinct tracks.album as album from tracks join tracks_persistent on tracks_persistent.urlmd5 = tracks.urlmd5 and (tracks_persistent.playCount = 0 or tracks_persistent.playCount is NULL or tracks_persistent.lastPlayed is NULL) left join dynamicplaylist_history on dynamicplaylist_history.id=tracks.id and dynamicplaylist_history.client='PlaylistPlayer' where tracks.url not like '%/DTS/%' and tracks.url not like '%/AC3/%' and tracks.url not like '%/Temp/%' and tracks.url not like like '%Low%20Sample%20Rates%' and tracks.audio = 1 and tracks.samplerate >= 44100 and dynamicplaylist_history.id is null and not exists (select * from tracks t2, genre_track, genres where t2.id = tracks.id and tracks.id = genre_track.track and genre_track.genre = genres.id and genres.name in ('AC-3','Audiobook','Comedy','Commentary','Commercial','Documentary','DTS','History', 'Interview','Kiddie','Podcast','Self Hypnosis','Shortwave','Sound Collage', 'Sound Effects','Spoken','Spoken Word','Talk','Test')) group by tracks.album order by random() limit 10) as partiallyplayed order by random() limit 1; --This step uses the above-selected album ID to select all the tracks for that album (played or not) except for those in unwanted genres select distinct tracks.url from tracks join dynamicplaylist_random_albums on dynamicplaylist_random_albums.album = tracks.album join tracks_persistent on tracks_persistent.urlmd5 = tracks.urlmd5 left join dynamicplaylist_history on dynamicplaylist_history.id=tracks.id and dynamicplaylist_history.client='PlaylistPlayer' where tracks.audio = 1 and dynamicplaylist_history.id is null and not exists (select * from tracks t2, genre_track, genres where t2.id = tracks.id and tracks.id = genre_track.track and genre_track.genre = genres.id and genres.name in ('AC-3','Audiobook','Comedy','Commentary','Commercial','Documentary','DTS','History', 'Interview','Kiddie','Podcast','Self Hypnosis','Shortwave','Sound Collage', 'Sound Effects','Spoken','Spoken Word','Talk','Test')) order by dynamicplaylist_random_albums.album, tracks.disc, tracks.tracknum; drop table if exists dynamicplaylist_random_albums; -------------------- Originally it worked exactly as intended, but recently it's begun ignoring the genres I *don't* want, so I'll wake up in the middle of the night to find it playing an audiobook (just for one example). It's been happening rarely enough that I've just been living with it (and maybe I did something wrong with the code?), but as of last night there's a new level of weirdness: 1. I just want full albums, but during the night it started adding tracks. Below is a sample of What Was That Tune? from last night: 38758 2. Additionally, though I have Max Number of Unplayed Songs set to 50, Min Number of Unplayed Songs set to 4 and Number of Played Tracks to Keep set to 100, I just noticed that my current playlist is enormous: 18 hours, 11 minutes, 43 seconds. The upcoming items mostly look like what I want (that is, complete albums not in excluded genres), but not entirely. There are some tracks without the rest of their albums and at least one track where the genre is "Podcast" and another where it's "Audiobook". I haven't made any changes at all with the server, so I'm not sure what's going on here. I haven't even rescanned in months. Any advice? +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Screenshot 2022-09-21 072252.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=38758| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115501 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
