Dynamic playlists that use the DPL4 *cache option* cannot have a track limit because DPL4 loads *all* tracks matching the dynamic playlist's search parameter into the cache in one initial database query (more detailled explanation in DPL upgrade FAQ). That's why you can't set a track limit in DPLC for them. DPL 4 will then add small batches of tracks to the players's current playlist. The -Max. number of unplayed songs- pref in DPL's settings is a global setting for -all- dynamic playlists that determines the number of new unplayed tracks to be added per batch.
But I suspect that the new -Save as static playlist- feature in DPL*4* could be exactly what you're looking for. Please give it a try. I've enabled it by default in 4.0.2. In DPL's menu (LMS default skin) you'll see a new control icon next to the names of dynamic playlists that looks like an old floppy disk. Use this to save the track results for your dynamic playlist as a *static* playlist. You can set a track limit (max. 4000) and a playlist name.
