a separate thread made me think of this. using the plays and times skipped (not implemented yet, i believe) to not so randomly randomize playlists. playing more of what is listened to. with the ability to turn this option off of course. i could go on and on..

There is some existing documentation for creating custom shuffle modes.

I understood that you wanted a random playlist with things played more often to be weighted towards the front. That could be accomplished with something like : PLAYS=5000,RANDOM=1. As you said, SKIPS is not yet implemented.

You're thinking of custom playlists which are sorted randomly, which isn't what custom shuffles are.... Look a bit more, and you should find what you're looking for.
