random playlist enhancements #63

Closed guestguestguestguest closed 3 years ago

guestguestguestguest commented 3 years ago

Two enhancement requests for random playlists:

  1. add random playlist by date e.g. 1972
  2. allow multiple keywords for artist and genre playlists e.g. jazz blues, or bach mozart

Thank you for your consideration. I use MaximumMpd all the time.

Adding by date is straight forward. Adding multiple values for artist and genre is a little more involved.

As the ui is using a simple text entry field figuring out what would separate the values will need some thought.

A single value can have spaces so that's out. I could use quotes but then entering them in via a mobile device becomes a bit cumbersome.

Perhaps using a "+" might be easier to manage.

Using a '+' to delimit multiple values would be perfectly fine with me. Thanks for your consideration.

Available in version 4.6 in the App Store. You can use the "+" for multiple values on all types.

I also added a configuration option for specifying the Random Playlist size. It defaults to 50 but can go up to 300 via increments of 50.
