feature request: expand auto dj functionality to allow selecting a playlist as a feed source #374

currently auto dj uses just the full library for what to choose from. it would be nice if it could use a playlist as a source instead so limiting it to certain types of music could be done. why not just load a playlist and randomize? one of the playlists i want to use is near half the library in length so loading the playlist in a mobile browser is very painful not that its super fast even on a pc

I have solved that part by putting all songs I want under a subfolder and defined 2 folders (main and ie. disco) in mStream. Now I select the 2nd folder in auto-dj to play only songs withing that subfolder. No direct need to create a playlist

With this option you can create multiple folders. The only issue is that there is little filtering so that songs can be indexed multiple times
