Hey guys of this great piece of software,

I have currently 128 rated tracks, at least 120 of them rated over 3. Now I set up a dynamic playlist: Fixed quota (the first one in the list, I translated literally..) of 100% for songs of the rating over 3. 7 songs to be queued in after playback, 13 to be there following the currently played one.
And now: I almost every time get duplicates. 5 Minutes ago it was most ridiculous: I had 5 (five!) times the same song in the list.
Anything I can do about that? Actually what I'ld love is a playlist that is somewhat half-dynamic. Like Rhythmbox that has a dynamic playlists for all songs rated, even if only by a star, and sorting it thereby. But I see that this is not within the idea of Amarok. I can cope with that, but having the same song played 5 times in a row is somewhat bad.
Any hint or help or such?
Thanks!

And what exact version of Amarok are you talking about?

Oh sorry, forgot to edit:
2.2.1 on Kubuntu Karmic

Hm, there is some work going on currently for the Dynamic Playlists, since we lacked a maintainer for it before. But now we have a new maintainer and he already has pushed some bugfixes to Amarok 2.2-git, so this should greatly improve by 2.2.2

phew, thanks for the answer ... as i was about to ask the same question

sorry i didnt want to make a new post for this but is there a way to make a dynamic playlist that makes the playlist from the most recent music i have added to my library.

or at least search for recently added music.

i add load of new music weekley to my library and can very easily lose track what is new and unheard and what isn't

In the collection search:

added:<8d will result in added last week f.e.
You can also use abbreviations for month and year
So I have a bookmark for this search:
added:<8d playcount:0
called newly added & not played
Play around, you'll find a solution that fits;-)

m0nk

thanks that does the job and thanks for the idea of bookmarking the search i would have not thought of that.

will this ever be possible for dynamic playlists
