SqueezeCenter CustomSkip

This plugin for slimserver makes it possible to define skip filters that skips specific tracks before they
are played. Best used together with Dynamic Playlist plugin, but skipping can also optionally be enabled in
the setting page for all other type of playlists.

Some examples about things that can be done:
- Skip tracks rated less than 2 (Requires TrackStat)
- Skip unrated tracks (Requires TrackStat)
- Skip tracks from a specific album
- Skip tracks which is part of a selected playlists
- Skip tracks that is part of the zapped playlist
- Skip tracks by a specific artist
- Skip tracks in a specific genre
- Skip short tracks
- Skip long tracks

For each skip item you can also define a precentage that indicate the chance that a matching track will be
skipped. This way to can define a filter that plays all rated tracks with for example SQLPlayList plugin and apply
a skip filter that skips 50% of the tracks rated less than 2. A skip filter can easily be modified by browsing to
an album, artist, genre and holding play down and selecting Custom Skip.
